Pros

- No fund constraints - Fairly laid back environement. - Better pay than some MNCs

Cons

- Management thinks culture can be developed by throwing money at people. - Most of employees from persistent, hence it is more like working in persistent rather than Siemens. Siemens is just a name. - Manager was worst, got feedback after 1.5 years that performance was not upto mark. When asked to change the project was told that no project is available hence need to be put in PIP. -Lot of lateral hires facing the same problem. Even senior mangers sacked after some dirty politics. -Zero work for developers. Do indeed join if you are a tester. -Nobody has operational independence. In short a better paying Infy, Persis, or Cogni. It is not an MNC dont expect such things from this company.

Pros

Competitive pay, flex vacation/ PTO

Cons

Organizational restructuring seems more frequent than other companies I’ve worked for. Constant changes in processes. In four years I’ve seen change in incentive plan twice and not for the better even though they’ll tell you it is. You can make great money in sales still. Corporate alignment of rollouts of product timeline v. actual reality in the area level.
