      Rehire policy

      Network operations specialist network delivery

      Pros

      There are no pros. Company full of lies

      Cons

      After spending 7yrs with Sprint Ericsson I was laid off. Then I find out about this 2 yr no re-hire policy. The way the did the lay off was completely unethical and according to the EEOC may not be legal I have seen jobs that I could do, but also a position that I was an expert at and won't get hired. I might mention that I'm 61. I'v seen this company destroy peoples lives. They would not let me return to my desk and in the process destroye all of my personal notes and papers I had collected on my own that did not pertain to any of Ericssons business practices. They should go back to Swedon where they came from. All talk, no walk

      Poor culture - no ethics at middle management level

      Software developer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Company values are good. It is a good compromise between work life balance and money

      Cons

      Poor and unethical middle management twists company policies to harass employees who work, since most of the team openly declares that they are not capable of working.

      Hired to fire

      Learning consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      When you are there they have decent benefits. (Or used to) Decent work life balance - at least in the groups I was in. Being South Asian is a big plus to working there. The new CEO seems to be turning things around, but E will never be the 800 lb gorilla again.

      Cons

      From the time I started in 2012 - it was a continual stream of downsizing in North America. Loss loss loss. Ericsson lost it's market leadership due to hubris and bad decisions. The morale was extremely low when I left. Stay a year or two then start looking for another job before they cut you. Don't get complacent.
