Pros

Salaries are competitive, large company with good benefits.

Cons

Despite having a professed policy for open communications, pointing out problems and asking difficult questions results in hostility. If you are passionate about finding better ways to do things, it is better to be quiet and start looking for another job. If you like stability and status quo, Ericsson is a good place to achieve your ambitions. Whistleblowers are not welcomed despite the professed policy. There were practices involving intellectual property that I found unethical but were allowed to continue rather than impact the delivery process. Management repeatedly "looked into" the problem and was always "working on a solution", but after 5 years, the problem had not been solved.

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.
