Perks of this place have been eroded by poor and weak managers

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Very few if you live anywhere other than Athlone.

Cons

Hybrid work policy . underhanded practices, reviewing your hybrid exemption behind your back and confirmed from management that no one will have on in the new year. Work is slow, you won't be always learning and growing unless you find some way outside of work. Line managers and upper management do not care about you or your growth. There is no fostering a good culture here, just throw buzzwords about.

It is not Cradlepoint anymore

Sales leader

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Cradlepoint had an awesome culture, engineering teams and sales teams. Then Ericsson bought it...

Cons

Ericsson ruined Cradlepoint. Every Cradlepoint leader (CEO, CFO, CPO, CMO) along with almost every SVP/VP in the company is now gone. Ericsson came in and placed their own Swedish team at the top and lost the hearts and minds of the employees. They are living off the fly-wheel from the previous teams. They have a terrible culture where the leader is self-centered and focused on her own career above all others.
