Nokia has been a special place to work. I have loved working here and learned so much as the company invested so much in me and in others.
But the market doesn't reward companies for doing the right thing for its employees. It rewards companies for making products that people wanted to buy. And we failed to do that (mainly because we made catastrophically wrong choices in which operating systems to get behind).
It is a shame. As someone staying behind in what is now "New Nokia" I can only hope the company remains a special place to work.
EDIT: by "we" I mean "our leadership". I don't think many of the Nokia rank-and-file would have supported the 2011 decision to do Windows Phone and only Windows Phone (if anyone would have asked them).
