Pros

Flexible work environment, great benefits, very good Sales training programs, the Swedish feel has been well preserved throughout the company, very diverse work environment in terms of cultures, opportunities to work abroad ... a very long list of Pros!

Cons

People are misplaced in the organization relative to their competence and strengths, e.g. Managers/VPs with very little/no technical understanding/skills placed in leadership positions where technology savviness is crucial for business decisions for the Region. Ericsson needs to embrace its technology roots at all levels! Gender diversity is going too far, i.e. Promoting women without critical skills in technology and leadership. By and large, the Engineering Operations personnel does not exhibit the in-depth knowledge that a world-class organization is expected to have.

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
