Pros

Good opportunities in Ericsson Global, though competition for place is steep but healthy. Work done is recognized, and compensation is good, if not great. Good to continue and flourish until you think that time has come to make changes.

Cons

As with any BIG MNC's, most things you do are planned hence your career growth will also follow a curve well within company limits.

Pros

Work life balance. Easy work. Dinner for every release. Yearly 1 outing. Exposure to telecom. Global graduate programs.

Cons

Poor management. No retention of talent. When recruited given good pay but later affected with poor hikes. People are recruited for specific purpose but are asked to work on different areas of no interest. Though Ericsson follows agile but its not agile. Too much of cost cutting to an extent that if I have cold or I feel like sneezing no tissue paper box at desks, have to rush to wash room Too much of unnecessary internal politics. Even though its R&D, Ericsson R&D Chennai division works like a services company. No respect.
