Pros

Must be the most unorthodox -non-swedish company to work for in Sweden. Salary is high in comparison (otherwise nobody would work for them) High tempo, intense, every day can be different Gives a feeling that if you can succeed here, you can succeed anywhere Chain of command can be hectic and conflictuous (relationship-based and not process-based)

Cons

As non-swedish as it gets; Crazy work style, relationship-based. There is not a company directory, and even if it existed one, chinese won't reply to you if they don't know who you are or they are not ordered to talk to you (again, the relationship based-workflow) Only chinese in higher positions (if you see a "westerner" there, it is just for show, no real power)

Huge distance between Huawei culture and European culture

Pros

The salary, if you stay long within the company, will be higher compared to the competition

Cons

Very hierarchical - top down management Cannot criticise or give feedback on decisions made by (sr) management You are expected to work 50 - 60 hours and sacrifice a lot for the company Lack of access to information if you are not Chineze. Managers are not trained and have almost no understanding of emotions and empathy Lots of military words used ("war", "frontline troops") and pictures shown that remind of combat
