Pros

I was working with great team, the media team. Direct managers were the best, as a team that was acquired from Microsoft, the managers has the Microsoft mentality, employee first style, open for feedback, etc...

Cons

The company as all, Ericsson, still living 20 years behind, that includes the new CEO as well. Too old people, traditional policies, traditional style management. They are firing lots of people at the moment, and the rest are leaving by themselves, not a safe place to work at the moment. They lie about stock matching benefit, where after i left all my matched stocks were removed, and i have lost money because of this. Employees don't have equal benefits.

Pros

The company culture is great. Super flexible, remote work culture and tons of different areas or career paths to pivot into. International company with offices in 180 different countries. Loads of diversity.

Cons

Many teams can be international, so timezones will conflict a lot and make it much harder to work with people who are overseas as they are logging off as you are getting on. This also causes communication issues as sometimes there can be language barriers.
