Dear IT management, get a clue!

Nokia's IT management is completely clueless, which is disaster for a company of this size and reach. Their experience and knowledge in both technology and people management leaves a lot to be desired. They are letting the software engineering group... — read more

Layoffs are the new normal

Layoffs have pretty much become the new normal for Nokia. Constant corporate restructurings always come with downsizing, the only uncertainties are where and how many people will be affected. This is really sad, because the lack of job security is... — read more

Wireless Software Developers and Testers were let go last month. But H1B Visa software developers and testers working in wireless were kept.

USA (Citizens) Wireless Software Developers and Testers were let go in Feb. But H1B Visa software developers and testers working in other wireless department were kept. Shouldn't the USA Citizens be offered the H1B visa guys job. Why isn't HR... — read more

To keep your job: Must work on weekends, Must work anytime when asked to work (7AM-11PM). No OT or comp time. Might as well go work for Huawei.

Is Huawei hiring in USA? If I have to work the weekends and from 7AM-11PM, then might as well work for a Chinese company in USA where I'm guaranteed to get a salary increase and bonus every year. Guaranteed because Huawei made $60B last year (and... — read more

Finland: Announced=1300, Actual=1032, What about the remaining 268 jobs (1300 -1032)? Is USA going to be the one paying the heavy price?

Forget the FEAR, and ask away. Let's put our heads together to beat Huawei/Ericsson. Exec say we are #1, but we all know we are still #3.

I have noticed that a lot of employees fear asking top executives about layoffs, reductions, cuts, synergies. Why are we so afraid? The worst they can do is fire us and that's going to happen anyway. So why not ask what's on everyone's minds. Forget... — read more
