Pros

One is given high reponsibilities since the first job,( I started as manager right after business school) flexibility to organize your working time, and that' it... Vey protitable and fresh money available all year run. Great marketing power

Cons

Quite sect environment. If you are not in the move, you are immediatly put aside by top management. Impossible to propose other ways of improving, unless you spend years negociating with top management, like it would be in a public company ruled by unions. ( over 85% of swedish working population subscribes unions) ; Amazingly unorganized at HQ in Sweden, working few hours a day, long coffe breaks, endless meetings
