Volvo Cars Software Developer reviews

1. Culture discourages working from home 2. Hard to increase salary while under contract. 3. Architects have way too much control over the day to day work and implementations of the software developers. 4. Overtime requests are quite common (once to twice a year). 5. Not much fun or perks at the office 6. Office space and area (Torslanda) is boring and too far from the city

- Big organization with some slow processes and in the middle of a reorg at the moment. - The company is "Gothenburg-heavy", most of the decisions are made there, and the Stockholm office lacks some perks they have in Gothenburg (on-site restaurants, gym facilities, etc.) - Stockholm office is too sterile (plain white walls, grey floor carpet, no decoration, no colors). - I miss some perks I had at my previous employers (tech education budget for courses and conferences, massage in the office, language course, gym membership, top-notch computer and phone, fika, Friday beer, hack days, meetups, swag, etc.)
