Pros

Ericsson is considered as a good company to work for. Ericsson is an ethical and sustainable company. The work pressure is moderate to have a good work-life balance. Ericsson attempts to pay slightly better than average. Being a worldwide company, there is a good chance to travel and explore other countries.

Cons

Ericsson is going through a consolidation of sites worldwide. Small locations are very susceptible to closure. The work is not as cutting edge as that of companies such as google. Some positions will have delivery pressure. The stock has not appreciated significantly in the past and there are no signs for a great increase.

Too process oriented, Slow moving. Too much staff -org changes for change sake. For sales, not very relationship based. Lots of wasted overhead, too much travel.
