Pluspunten

Everything was good, from people to opportunities to grow professionally. The manager, the team and all other engineering colleagues are all very collaborative and allow us to innovate and explore new ideas.

Minpunten

I've been working at Ericsson for about 3 years. Recently, the company created a recognition platform to encourage employees to help each other. Each employee can send kudos to someone that helped them with some points that could be exchange for vouchers. I got plenty of those points by helping colleagues, but the voucher provider did something wrong in their side and gave me wrong vouchers. I didn't care as those are just invaluable points being converted to usable vouchers. The provider contacted Ericsson and the compliance team contacted me accusing me for using the wrong vouchers. They claimed that I didn't calculated the value in cash of each point (I thought what? You invent this abstract thing with some random number of points and now we have to spend time counting? Isn't it easier to give us the value in cash then?). Next day I was fired and the company took all rewards that I should receive for my additional contributions, including ideas, patents etc. I was basically treated as a criminal for a third-party mistake and forced to sign a consent document (otherwise they would not pay anything).

Pluspunten

-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

Minpunten

-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.
