A May 1, 2000 Fortune article called "Nokia's Secret Code" described the original team put together in 1992 when annual sales were 1/10th of what they are today, this way:

The five have worked together for so long that they can converse in a kind of shorthand. They are seen by many at Nokia as an inseparable unit. Around Nokia, it is said, you don't hear so much talk about Jorma this or Jorma that. It's almost always Matti and Sari and Pekka and Olli-Pekka and Jorma, or some combination of the team.

The same article refers to Nokia as "perhaps the least hierarchical big company in the world", and comments that "something about the way Nokia works makes it more pragmatic, more focused, and more flexible than other companies."
