Vantaggi
In the frontline of mobile telephony technology, mainly in Radio Access Network area. Global presence. Some really nice and skilled people.
Svantaggi
Work/life balance non-existing: You're supposed to work or be available at all time - otherwise you're regarded a low performer. Top management lacks knowledge of own org. They are busy trying to meet budget numbers or finding excuses explaining bad performance. Long term goals and investments completely lacking. It's all about meeting budget - half year and full year. Shipping unfinished bad quality products to customers in order to send invoices out is more important than long term customer satisfaction and relationship. "Ship and invoice before year end. Don't bother if customers are disappointed and returns products and get refund beginning of next year." Lack of priority and red line in business. Everything is of highest importance as long as there is a slight possibility to get some orders. Lots of internal politics and people trying to sneak under the radar. As long as your own part of the org is not scrutinized by the management team you're ok. Recurring cost reductions and layoffs.
