Pros

Reputation: you definately can see, that most people are still "proud" to work with Siemens (especially in the global headquarter), although there is a lot of discussions about "how good the old times were". Professionalism, leading to a very good reference for further jobs. Also interesting work, you felt doing something meaningful, although just working as an intern.

Cons

bureaucracy, politics, salaray for interns rather low. Often there has been a lack of transparency, what other departments are doing, resulting in 2 departments doing almost the same projects tasks. Besides: also quite a lot of restructring, changes and shifting responsibilities from one department to the other.

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.
