Pros

Nokia has a good work culture. Working in teams is very well achieved and egos are not as big as in many US companies. You get to work in great devices. Nokia makes 400 million cell phones. Work life balance is very good. 401K = 8% of pay with 100% match.

Cons

Work can be quite process oriented. Decision making is slow. Europe has a holier than thou view of looking at US operations. Pay is honestly not very competitive. 401K match makes up for it. Options and restrictive shares are not offered as much as other companies. Bonus pay is average (15% expected) but quite steady.
