Pros

The company embraces an entrepreneurial culture and there is great amount of freedom to define your own path and recommend changes. Peer groups are very strong and the mid-management down to staff levels of employees are great to work with. Ericsson corporate (parent) is very supportive of employee recognition programs. An industry leader - you will be on the cutting edge of broadcast and VOD technology.

Cons

Upper management is terrible. They are a mishmash of cultures and styles that has not developed a cohesive mission for groups to operate in. If you want to advance, don't rely on merit or recognition from local leadership - a lot of infighting at the VP level and execs are more interested in building relationships for their benefit instead of developing their teams. The company is constantly reorganizing - not necessarily layoffs but don't be surprised if your job or the org chart changes several times while you work there.

Pros

At Ericsson there are so many opportunities to grow. Since it is a Multi national Company, you are not restricted to one region.

Cons

Salary Compensation and benefits are not really great when compared to some of the competitors. Could be a little better.
