Pros

Strong HR principles and takes good care of employees. Takes risks with forward looking project management practices like lean principles. Very strong work ethics and very fair and safe work environments. Everyone is extremely professional, takes constructive criticisms individually and collectively very well. Good work life balance. Very nice work environment and near Google level office (in ergonomics, not playfulness).

Cons

Unambitious and puts 40 people to work on something for a year that you think you can do it yourself in a month. Have the willpower and skills to do much more than your post? Tough luck. Rigid hierarchy. Managers eat among themselves. You will never be proud of what you create or showcase it to your friends. As entreprise software, design and UI will always be absolutely abysmal. Individual opinions or ambitions don't matter. Raises are meaningless.

Pros

Great brand name, produces a very high quality product, industry leader, pay and bens top 2 quartiles against similar companies, great for the CV.

Cons

Very Germanic culture - spreadsheets and death by powerpoint are the language, little entrusted to employees, cannot use your initiative, almost no career path or ongoing learning/development programmes, almost no feedback on job performance, good or bad. Top management is mostly recruited in from outside at high salaries with few internal promotions, little diversity - few if any women, minorities in positions of management, no transparency in communication and late communication when the rumour mill has been running until management figures out how to do PR messages, people are a commodity and not valued, HR very weak and does not work for employees at all. Toxic and highly political environment, especially in marketing department.
