Pros

Good benefits. Work-life balance. Global reach with diversity.

Cons

Terrible work culture, laden with process and bureaucracy. Combined with good benefits and work-life balance, this produces a very bad mix of incompetent leaders being institutionalized resorting to internal politics to survive. Ericsson has killed pretty much all of its acquisitions with this kind of management, while driving its best and most productive engineers out of the company.

Pros

The benefits are great at ericsson as a field tech. No premiums to pay. Vacation and PTO is also good, up to 6 weeks of PTO in the first year.

Cons

Not a lot of room for advancing your career. Layoffs can hit without warning, Pay is a little on the low side, but can be made up with over time
