Ericsson reviews

I have worked globally, this review is based on organisation in Ireland only. - The business has changed and managers are very slow to change their thinking, an old boys club who are supported by a very poor HR. - Lots of travel and high pressure for utilisation for 'working staff', no down time - lip service paid to it only, lots of people close to burnout - in contrast those well connected get soft assignments so its not equal pain in E///. - Blame culture is rampant in local Dublin office, can be a horrible place to work - No real recognition (or understanding by management) of a job well done only pressure for the next assignment. - middle management are weak, they may have been good technically at one time or else were 'well connected' but morph into administrators who have no customer facing work. No credability as managers. - senior management are self serving - more loyal to their career than the organisation they are assigned, - no trust left, nobody believes what management say anymore, been caught out with lies too many times - jobs for the boys and the in cliche is rife, bullying behaviours are common and seen as the ability to be tough, HR supports this - ask anyone with a morsel of integrity who has reported such behaviour to HR and see where they are now. - No understanding of leadership, its sad as they believe they are leaders but no one is following. - Fundamental problem is that the Core Values of respect professionalism and perseverance are paid lip service and largely ignored. Assumptions of 'how we do things' that conflict with core values are the directors of behaviour and thinking. Unless this changes, nothing else will.

Poor and unethical middle management twists company policies to harass employees who work, since most of the team openly declares that they are not capable of working.
