Pros
Core Technology and focus on the SP (Telco) market and adjacent IP related markets. Nokia as a mobile operator is compelling, focused to deliver on the promise for their top 40 global customers. This BU, though extremely process orientated, has a recipe that works. Caution the entrepreneur .
Cons
Unfortunately, anything outside of mobile is riddled by x Alcatel and Nortel people in middle to top management roles. The Company tries to recruit new blood but after3 years most have left due to the poor cliquey technical sales management, who frankly do not have a clue. They know how to manage up but not run business and engage the field facing sales staff. Nokia appears to have a strategy to eliminate any job in western, Northern Europe and move it to India or Hungary. So you work with a virtual team in a different TZ than do not understand well the local language customs, customers. The company will survive as there is not much competition left and mistakenly the EU thinks Nokia is still European but that boat left with most staff now in India or USA. Nokia is not for the change agent, make a difference type of person.
