Pros

First of all considering the gamut of small vendors in the SCADA industry in India, Siemens offers great pay. But compare it with other big names like ABB or Areva maybe not as good but not too bad either. The best thing about Siemens is the work culture. It extremely relaxed for an MNC of its stature. In my two years here I barely felt any work related pressures. No wonder many employees stay here for over 20 years.

Cons

As a SCADA engg. one barely scratches the surface of the technology. Almost all products and technologies offered have been developed in Germany, so the average engineer here in India is never really exposed to the nitty gritty. Additionally all technical training offered is worthless.

Pros

The work culture is really good. Really diversified work force. For a young person like me, it was a really great learning experience working with experts on projects. The company values experience and work knowledge over any fancy degrees. The work environment is structured in such a way it allows you to settle into your job nicely. You can work according to your own pace and structure. Time discipline and being methodical is greatly appreciated. Doing properly is more important than doing it fast!

Cons

The career progression might seem slow to some people. The reason for this that the org. structure is very flat. There are very few job titles and employee designations. One might feel that one is not climbing up the ladder fast enough as the promotions take a long time to come. The processes and procedures might seem daunting at first.

Pros

Good work / life balance. Employee friendly management Good environment. Good work content. There is a freedom to employees to express themselves

Cons

Sometimes it feels that it is a kind of Government company and also you will feel that things move slowly in here. Career growth is also bit slow. Year of experience counts more than capabilities.
