Pros

Above average employment conditions, annual leave, compensation, company's pension plan etc. Nice office building with all amenities like underground parking, gym, etc. Autonomy and trust from the managers. It's the headquarters where one's voice and expertise are listened to and respected. Plenty of interesting projects from the entire spectrum of the GIS domain.

Cons

Only mobile/embedded development, they have no clue how to make anything web related. Death march, dead end projects. One might find itself the last person working on "a project", meanwhile the requirements and feature requests will keep coming. I guess, this is the way of saying "project is obsolete and you need to leave" because I'd only heard about internal mobility but hadn't experienced it. Impossible to hire new engineers in recent years, only new ones had been defined-term low paid contractors, and student interns.

Pros

The company in general looks good in respect of german IT. But please avoid OpenSearch (former Geocoder) department in Schwalbach (Frankfurt).

Cons

There is no real management educated but the people who cannot make any desicion and only care about their job security. As a result the most skilled employees left the company. The only ones still stay who cannot leave because of lack of qualification or age. Besides that there is a clear distinction between german and the other employees from management perspecive. Promotions, norman salary increases, conferences (very rare btw), travels are not for you if you are not german. There is nothing even close to it in Amazon.
