Pros

Good benefits, remote work, and a good work-life balance (at least in my team).

Cons

I worked for Ericsson Ottawa for 4 years. I started here with high hopes and expectations, but was ultimately let down time and time again by bad management, and sad to say it, a sexist and mysogynistic environment. I was hired as a software developer, but hardly got to do any development all. Instead I ended up in a role which I had no interest in and my requests to be given different work didn’t lead anywhere. All in all, I was happy to get out.

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.
