Pros

Big company but management very poor ok if your face fits

Cons

Lots of meetings management thinks if they have lots of meetings will solve the problems Or they can tell higher management they had a meeting, meetings had no point should be customer facing not meetings

Pros

International, many opportunities, great colleagues, many interesting projects

Cons

Increasing centralization and monitoring; new management culture emerged that has a negative impact on the working culture; people are no longer in the focus, as it used to be; to me it seems that they are treated as cost factor only

Pros

Reasonable salary, very experienced and talented colleagues, good benefits package that has been recently reviewed and improved. Industry leading technology.

Cons

Salaries for existing staff don't keep pace with industry, new staff get better offers. Talented engineers are bogged down by poor admin systems. Inconsistent on quality, profit first, quality later. Poorly planned change projects are pushed by upper management that don't understand (or want to) the work at ground level. Lack of technical expertise in sales means customers aren't always sold the best solution. Experts are ignored or aren't consulted. Very much a 'managers know best' culture. As others have said, managers are untouchable.
