Ericsson reviews

(Applicable only for Ericsson India - CSI ADM) 1. You don't have a technical manager, though they claim themselves to be one such, but basically, they are Resource Managers. 2. India operates in a Staff Augmentation mode, so, only Resource Managers would be there. 3. No managed services project. Prepared to do what is instructed by your Region and in the most cases, there wont be any process followed. 4. Most of the cases, code reviews, brainstorming, design discussions will not happen. 5. Not a single label, where CSI ADM can boast of, is existing. (Eg. Bharti account for IBM India) 6. No body bothers about your career because most of the managers have joined through referrals and they focus on achieving their KPIs like billability, competency mgmt. etc... 7. Your annual appraisals are done by the Resource Managers, who maynot even be knowing what your technology is, and the complexities involved in your project. For them, every project is equal, be it a PoC or a Transformation Project and whether it is successful or if it is a failure...

Too much politics, huge power fight. There is a huge gap between senior management and people performing day to day work. Lack of direction on where company is heading is one more thing to worry about.
