How does Nokia retain its talent? What factors keep people here for the long run?

Michael R. asked a question to Dharmendra S.

Hi Zsuzsanna, I'm a 4th Year student that has recently applied for many positions at Nokia. I noticed that you have 20+ years at Nokia, and I wanted to know why I should choose Nokia for my Co-op. Specifically, how has Nokia retained you for these last 20 years, and what makes it different?

Hi, it is a great question! What I can tell you is that life here is never boring.
We are fortunate to have numerous learning and development opportunities, including various training programs and short- or long-term job-rotations across different organizations. Beyond professional growth, the company is truly family-friendly. On top of that, the flexible working options allow us to maintain a healthy work-life balance.
Throughout my years here, I’ve held both local and global positions across several organizations. Immersing myself in different cultures, different projects, different jobs, and meeting diverse people is what has made my journey so exciting, next to the life-long-learning.

Beyond all the amazing reasons mentioned above, the vision and purpose of Nokia excite me tremendously. Our innovation helps making the world a better place all the time with our products and solutions. Further, we are the most ethical company, with a rich legacy of almost 160 years. All this motivates me and others to make a nice career here. I hope this helped. All the best.
