Pros

Huge network of people. Amazing opportunities in Europe. Pick you division correctly as there is a big difference between Siemens Energy, Healthineers and Mobility. Some thrive in North America like Healthineers while others don't like Energy.

Cons

Financial issues in the Energy division has led to a lot of layoffs and restructuring. It is very similar to what happened to GE recently. Lots of discretion is giving to your manager, so under-performers stay if they are close to their boss while the opposite is unfortunately true as well. Such a large company that unless you did an internship rotation, the on-boarding typically is near nothing and you won't learn about the rest of the company without lots of pain. Siemens does a poor job of informing you. Yammer is just verbal diarrhea.

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.
