      Dead end for young talent and US-based employees

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Strong engineering/R&D-driven culture and the company is a technical leader in the telecom industry - Excellent benefits and generous PTO (though trending downward) - Reasonable work/life balance, depending on your team - Market leadership in the telecom space (for now) - Rare but possible global mobility opportunities (difficult for US employees)

      Cons

      - Aging workforce and poor talent pipeline: the company struggles to attract young U.S. talent, and internal career advancement is limited - Frustrating experience for early career hires — many feel stuck or end up leaving - Increasingly ineffective and disconnected management: Recent leadership additions show little long-term vision, empathy, or loyalty - Push for return-to-office and Plano consolidation is hypocritical — several leaders live in remote, non-hub locations themselves - The global company is overly focused on publicly aligning with conservative political trends, particularly in Texas — a bizarre choice for a European company trying to rebrand as an innovative global tech player - Swedish cultural values that once set the company apart are totally absent in U.S. offices - Heavy and growing dependence on outsourcing, which undermines quality and continuity - Once-premium benefits are quietly declining year after year
