Pros

Ericsson has a big brand name worldwide.

Cons

They give you like 1% (of your base salary) in annual bonuses. No stock bonus. Base salaries are 10% lower than market average. Yearly appreciation in salary is almost NIL. They fire about more than 10% people annually. This company is not for you, especially if you are a new college grad and/or on OPT/visa.

Pros

Good heritage with the Tandberg company that was acquired. That was a great team spirit, but sadly long since gone

Cons

Faceless management, too many levels in the company, no real HR, lots of talk from senior people who don't live the values or practice what they preach. They have ground the organisation down with red tape and Swedish centric policies which make no sense. No pay rises, nowhere to park, I could go on.....
