Pros

Adjustable desks, comfy chairs. Some good people who have to spend so much time on internal process and infighting. Basic salary and pension is competitive but no bonus in recent years mitigates.

Cons

Company is in a tail spin. No time to turn around before the next re-org. Reputation vs. reality of company. Constant risk of redundancy often in the middle of engagements, very poor settlement terms, short notice periods, last in first out model. Complex inefficient organisation the "Ericsson" way. No bonus negates competitive salary. Like contracting but with greater uncertainty. No reward or incentive for contributing to company performance.

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
