As a well-established company, Atlas Copco feels like a big corporation because it is one. Everyone has defined roles, there are lots of policies (if you like that), and you know what is expected of you. It is a very stable company, do the job that is asked of you and you have a "safe" place to work for many years.
Cons
The corporate feel is very dependent on the local environment. If you work on a team that is engaging and fun, then the work is great. If the team isn't fun, well, then work feels like work.
You need to jump around between internal jobs and departments in order to move up in responsibility and compensation.

Coworkers are great
Many problems so you stay busy as a CI person
The people at the worker bee level are the only real pro
Cons
Managers are too “wise”
You can’t change anything inside the ERP but they all want ERP changes (it’s bad you will get frustrated)
Super decentralized meaning all building operate how they want to. They make it sound like a strength but it’s literally their biggest weakness.
Managers do not understand processes
USZ or the NSC in Charlotte has a serious issue of hiring people who are not qualified for manager roles as managers.
Discrimination
They care more about how you look and not so much about the work you produce
