Pros

Great benefits and some amazing people. Working on a campus provides nice amenities.

Cons

Management and executive leadership do not reflect the diversity of the people they're leading; if you aren't in with the right people, you have no hope of moving forward. Misogyny and racism, while hopefully accidental, are not addressed appropriately. The appearance of inappropriate relationships between leadership and staff occurs often and is not addressed. There is lip service paid to diversity and inclusion in North America, but there seems to be a disconnect from HQ in Plano to the Overland Park office. Managers make jokes about people they've laid off, and disparage employees in front of other employees. I have noticed, reading through these reviews, that Ericsson responds nicely to the positive reviews. A response to a negative review, any of the reviews that have brought up negative experiences, would show potential and current employees that Ericsson does care about their employees and wants to ensure a safe, healthy, productive, and positive environment for them all.

Pros

The company culture is great. Super flexible, remote work culture and tons of different areas or career paths to pivot into. International company with offices in 180 different countries. Loads of diversity.

Cons

Many teams can be international, so timezones will conflict a lot and make it much harder to work with people who are overseas as they are logging off as you are getting on. This also causes communication issues as sometimes there can be language barriers.

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.
