Pros

A handful of good colleagues trying to stay motivated Advice to New Joiners Think carefully before joining. If you do, aim for the Platform team — it's the only one receiving consistent support and royal benefits.

Cons

A toxic level of favoritism: one team is treated exceptionally well while others are ignored and undervalued. Platform team is the only one given real support and recognition always No appreciation for hard work — less hikes and no promotions even employee consistently perform well Senior employees are demoted just to satisfy upper management No learning opportunities or exposure to new technologies — professional growth is stalled Sweden management is helpless, while decisions are dominated by a single controlling figure in offshore office. Ever since the Forterro acquisition, there’s been nothing but chaos, reorgs, and instability

Pros

Forterro is a company with strong, focused leadership that’s genuinely driving the organisation forward. There is a clear strategy, open communication, and a real sense of momentum as we continue to modernise and scale. The product portfolio is robust and well-respected in the manufacturing ERP space, and with the shift toward cloud and AI, the future direction feels exciting. It’s also a great place to grow your career, the environment rewards ownership, offers meaningful opportunities to step up, and gives you the chance to make a real impact as the company evolves.

Cons

There aren’t any major cons to call out, the challenges here are largely the natural growing pains you’d expect in any SaaS company going through a significant transformation. Processes are evolving, expectations are rising, and sometimes the pace of change can feel fast. But these are signs of progress, not problems, and the business is clearly moving in the right direction with visible improvements quarter after quarter.
