I'm thinking of working for Siemans
Is there anything i should know about their dealings that a Lefty like myself might find offensive?

2. I didn't know...:(...
I'll be working in IT (Network) and I'll have to move so I wanted to know some of the shady side of things before I have to choose or not...

6. Siemens has a history
Honestly, I don't know what they're like today. I do know that my mother was forced labor at Siemens during WWII. Google Siemens and "slave labor" for an eye opener.

3. Not really
It is a right-wing company, but : "non olet". Just make sure that you remember the company name during the interview.
