Pros

The only positive aspect of working here is the coworkers. Initially, they are friendly and supportive, creating a welcoming atmosphere. However, this doesn't last. Over time, you'll notice your colleagues losing their smiles and enthusiasm. The challenging work environment gradually takes its toll on everyone's mental health, leading many to eventually leave the company.

Cons

Insulting pay that's a slap in the face compared to competitors. Benefits? What benefits? They offer the bare minimum and call it generosity. Work-life balance is a joke. Prepare for grueling rotating shifts that'll drain your soul. Promotions? Keep dreaming. Career growth is stagnant, employees remain in entry-level positions for years without promotion. -Job responsibilities are a never-ending nightmare. You're not just a technician, you're everyone's lackey. Management is a toxic cesspool: -Micromanagement that'll suffocate you -Retaliation is their favorite pastime -Dare to speak up? Enjoy unemployment -Nepotism runs rampant - family and friends get fast-tracked while you're left in the dust. -Office atmosphere is so tense you could cut it with a knife. -Mass exodus of talent (5 top performers fled in just 1 month) -Swedish work culture? They've never heard of it. This company is a dumpster fire of toxic American "hustle culture" masquerading as a Swedish enterprise. They'll suck the life out of you while bragging about their record-breaking profits. Operations staff are treated like galley slaves on a sinking ship. If you value your sanity, run far, far away from this hellhole. Your soul will thank you.
