Pros
Good work-life balance and interesting industry with plenty of room to explore, specially within the R&D department. Possibility to be creative and "play around" with ideas.
Cons
The R&D deparment is very "Finnish-routed". This means that there is barely any diversification in the teams, and even if working language is claimed to be English, truth is a lot of the documentation is in Finnish, and a lot of the colleagues with technical roles are quite reluctant to change the language to English. This essentially also means, that as a non-finnish speaker, I was denied the opportunity of taking certain courses and workshops, because they would prioritize these in Finnish, as not all of the employees spoke proper English (even when, in theory, this is a requisite to work at the deparment) and they did not have the agility to offer such courses in both languages, hence, the old-fashioned culture. To summarize, if you are a young and non-Finnish engineer, your development opportunities here have an expiry date.
