Pros

Interview experience was enjoyable - but see 'Cons'.

Cons

Reached the very last stage of a senior position with Ericsson to be rejected by email - no phone call, no personal feedback - indeed I had to chase the TA recruiter for an answer 4 days after the date at which I was told the hiring decision would be made. Really poor experience.

Pros

Flexible Work Arrangement. Allows Hybrid. High salary especially expats.

Cons

Management especially in cloud and core is slowly being encroached by Indian nationals and locals are being sidelined and eventually retrenched.

Pros

- Good work/life balance but can depend on team as people I know there work late into the evening and on some weekends - Nice canteen - Friendly people (again depends on team) - Good pension scheme

Cons

- Management pushing getting more done for less - More pressure - Terrible pay raises - No bonus/stock - Not great pay compared to other companies - Promotions are getting more difficult and strenuous to achieve - Forced return to office to ensure silent lay offs - Culture in general is much worse than 2-3 years ago - Location is not great too as due to RTO you need to live in Athlone which is suffering a housing shortage
