Pros

1. Good learning, variety of exposure to various domains. 2. Good opportunities locally as well as worldwide.

Cons

1. No more a focused and innovative company. 2. Unable to keep up pace with changing industry, as a result of which it is bleeding losses over losses every quarter since 2014. 3. Politics at highest management affect Engineers. 4. Company is confused now what to do and what not to do to stop the bleeding. 5. Unable to find a single visionary who can take Ericsson back to its golden era ; all because of internal politics. 6. Agile is used to micr-manage people. 7. No work life balance. WFH is strictly prohibited as many locations and is granted based on manager's discretion.

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.
