Pros

- Still leading the telecommunication industry with many large telecom companies as its customer across the world. - Leading the 5G revolution. - Adapting to the change in the software and technology industry at large. - Many smart engineers to work with. - Lots of good perks and good work-life balance.

Cons

- Struggling to be agile in the fast-changing hardware and software industry. Dealing with the similar problems faced by big companies (although many companies have managed to change faster than Ericsson) like bureaucracy, politics, too many decision-makers, organization-wide policies (one-size-fits-all policies across geographies). - Archaic processes and tools being used across the organization making teams and engineers drag their feet to get projects done. - Perks not competent enough to hire good talent (especially in Bay Area).

Pros

The company culture is great. Super flexible, remote work culture and tons of different areas or career paths to pivot into. International company with offices in 180 different countries. Loads of diversity.

Cons

Many teams can be international, so timezones will conflict a lot and make it much harder to work with people who are overseas as they are logging off as you are getting on. This also causes communication issues as sometimes there can be language barriers.
