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

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.
