Politics is very bad as it is field job and not contribute to our work on achievement, it only depend on our your manager and all senior/Upper managers are totally trust on it whether it is right or Wrong. Work life balance is average and work envirnment is also not very well. As there is no any innovation done by company. Also it takes very short time span for training purposes as compare to other.

Nokia is a best place of you are looking out for a stable job and secure stay. In my 14 yrs of career I have seen very less or least corporate politics in Nokia. I don't want to generalise that for the whole company becoz I have worked for 3 different teams at Nokia. So that's my opinion. Sometimes people are extremely rude and head strong here, becoz they have lived their whole life here and they think it's their own place. So you might some times better dissatisfied with the people around.

Job security - Good

Everybody has the same opinion about pay and promotion. But I personally feel Nokia is paying a bit less than the market trend, however their policies are fair enough. At the end of the day, the more you earn, the more tax you pay, so it's one and the same.

Salary - Poor
