Pros

- Still leading the telecommunication industry with many large telecom companies as its customer across the world. - Leading the 5G revolution. - Adapting to the change in the software and technology industry at large. - Many smart engineers to work with. - Lots of good perks and good work-life balance.

Cons

- Struggling to be agile in the fast-changing hardware and software industry. Dealing with the similar problems faced by big companies (although many companies have managed to change faster than Ericsson) like bureaucracy, politics, too many decision-makers, organization-wide policies (one-size-fits-all policies across geographies). - Archaic processes and tools being used across the organization making teams and engineers drag their feet to get projects done. - Perks not competent enough to hire good talent (especially in Bay Area).
