Pros

Excellent health benefits for US-based employees, since it is a European-based company. They even considered paying the Obama-Care "Cadillac" tax to keep the extremely good health benefits. Ericsson eventually opted to change/scale back some of the benefits to avoid the higher taxes, but the benefits are still rather good. Profitable company.

Cons

North America has semi-annual layoffs. There is no formalized training to perform your job. You are left to figure things out on your own, based on documentation. It is rare to be assigned to a project where other experienced employees can coach you.

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.
