job - Academic Advisor Volvo Car Mobility Employee Review

Interesting product, nice tech stack, good office location, good benefits, nice people overall.

Management structure is a mess. Engineering is a silo, design another silo, marketing a third etc. With xskill teams being the norm, this can create friction. Management talks about high performant teams and psychological safety, but when push comes to shove they can still overrule and undermine you if you poke your head out. There’s also a high turnover in most roles, I had 5 managers in 1,5 years time.

We have a great mission Great office in central Stockholm with plenty of desks and spaces to have fun/relax People are friendly and enjoy working together. People are generally talented/motivated and have a "can-do" attitude. Hack week a few times a year, to work with others on something you find exciting!

Due to the relatively small size of the company, it can be unclear how to progress your career. Limited opportunities for promotion.
