Pros

After 5 years, here are some of the pros: + possibility to meet great colleagues and open minded people; + the workflow is dynamic and there are periods when a lot of changes are going on; + most people are young and the age gap is almost non-existent; + the working medium is professional - people know what they are doing, and if you don't know what to do, they will help you; + it's not about flattery (like in some small companies; I tried to use a nice word), but about actual results; + you get to learn things which you couldn't in a small company (because you interact with lots of disciplines and people, you won't be limited to doing only <insert_generic_SWDev_job_here>);

Cons

and cons.... - technology is outdated - being a big corporation, things change slowly on this part; - salaries are pretty small; - work can be sometimes repetitive; - upper management can't handle clients and projects because they always seek the biggest profit - this has detrimental effects in the long term; ----- being a german company, with german management, german way of thinking, and german style of doing business, they are losing big parts of the market; due to the industry inertia, the company doesn't try new things, because "nobody would buy that" - and now, companies like tesla will simply destroy this kind of competition, unless they start acting yesterday...

Pros

Great work life balance and culture. If you want to work at a place that will provide a low stress, flexible position with amazing people, this place is no doubt one of the best in that area.

Cons

Pay is low compared to other companies in the area and the cost of living in the area is high. They seem to be outsourcing jobs to cut costs, so job security is not the best right now.
