Pros

To get experience and find a better paying job with a company were employees are treated like people not numbers. Siemens name looks good on the resume if supported by at least three years of experience there.

Cons

Low salaries!!! Lack of leadership. Wasteful system. The employees in Europe are offered much better terms than their American counterparts. There are layers and layers of mid level management just to handle the bureaucratic ways of the company and each of the managers is overloaded with work for work sake.

Pros

Great people to work with. There are a lot of senior and experienced people working at Siemens. The work and life balance are also great.

Cons

Not a lot of room for upward movement. Some product lines are cutting positions. The raises are an average of 3.5%. It doesn't matter if your a top performer and average, you're going to get the same raise.

Pros

I initially thought the reputation of the company and with that, I thought the company will be a better place to work for, but after couple of months on the job. I discovered that it was a wrong chess move.

Cons

Lack of Leadership on the part of the supervisor and senior management Leadership do not know how to inspire greatness in their subordinates Limited chance for advancement in terms of advance to a better opportunity Siemens promotes a feudal society, a society where sales associates are kings and the engineers and technicians that does the actually job are consider as servant Senior management do not promote educational advancement. Work places lack an air of professionalism, employees gossip, backbbite, crack stupid jokes
