Ericsson is a great Employer and Ericsson Silicon Valley (ESV) is a great place to work for.

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

If you are willing to go the extra mile, Ericsson is the place to be. Ericsson Management recognizes and rewards hardwork. Lot of exposure to top telecom service providers and their networks. You get to work with extremely smart (creme de la creme) people from Sweden and rest of the world.

Cons

Lots of Swedes visit ESV on LTA (long term assignment - max 2 years). When you feel like they have settled down and things are going really well, they will have to go back and someone new will replace him/her. On the bright side, if you are someone who wants to work in other parts of the world, it is a great opportunity.

Mid age okay company

Software engineer

Business Outlook

Pros

You may not get high pay or get a good position fast. But it is stable and the working environment is okay.

Cons

Typical large company, thus you may find yourself bored since they have a mid-age employee group. Also, they do not provide foods.
