Current Employee – been working at Autoliv full-time for more than 3 years
Pros – I have a great manager and the pay is pretty good. The hours are very stable, and there is always a problem to solve and work to be done, which makes things interesting.
Cons – Upper management doesn't provide a clear direction for the company. The corporate initiatives often seem like a wasted effort, without very practical or clear objectives.
Advice to Senior Management – I would be clearer to all employees the direction the ship is headed instead of the corporate non-sense talk.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Current Employee – been working at Autoliv full-time for more than 10 years
Pros – This is a technically advanced company and the technoogy is amazing. The company is very into lean manufacturing and a lot of the managers truly believe in the "Don't Judge Don't Blame" view of things. The company believes in education and has a great education benefit program if you are wise enought to take advantage of it. I have been with the company a long time and it has taken good care of me.
Cons – There is still some politics just like you find in every company. Some of the managers are egotistical but no more than any other place I have worked. If you want to advance you must have a degree even if you have been with the company for years.
Advice to Senior Management – Keep building current employees which in turn will build a better workplace.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Advice to Senior Management – Need to create a better working environment and co-ordination between different departments. Office is in a very distant location from the city. Need some recreational facilities. Need to add more resource to manage work effectively

Current Employee – been working at Autoliv
Pros – Decent benefits, friendly co-workers, OK pay
Cons – Internal red tape often gets in the way of getting things done. Management is rarely helpful until the issue is red-hot. There is a system for everything but nobody knows where, what, why or how to use it properly. Consequently, systems are often times skirted in order to get things done. Raises are rare and barely keep up with inflation.
Advice to Senior Management – Pay attention to how systems are working between facilities and departments. Keep processes that add value and eliminate those that do not. Design systems for the typical work flow, not for the exception.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
