Pros

Siemens continues to pay salaries even though the entity maybe losing money.

Cons

Many of the skills expected to be possessed by senior management are non-existent. Management of companies is completely centralised in Munich and lin-country personnel simply follow directives. Managament is by computer, guidelines and circulars leading to treatment of employees which is extremely impersonal, often impolite, usually rude and bullying. Stifles initiative and creativity... higly bureaucratized.

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.
