Pros

Innovative company; never stands still. I always was presented with new challenges. Friendly, but demanding atmosphere. Pay and benefits are good, and they honor their commitments. Trips to Sweden are fun.

Cons

Led by Swedish culture. Nice people, but things move slowly. Swedish employees take the whole summer off, while US employees keep working hard. Then when they need to downsize, Sweden is retained (they can't lay them off), and all the layoffs happen in the US. Ericsson does not seem to appreciate the hard-working Americans as much as if you are born in Sweden.
