Pros

Great medical and dental benefits and one of the last companies to offer cash pension plan. Takes care of employees, does not lay off employees at the slightest whim and fancy. Management supports your ideas and information flows freely between management and employees. Personal business plan for employees - excellent way of stating actionable goals to achieve in a year and monitoring them.

Cons

Slowest decision making process and after spending countless weeks discussing it in "workshops". Senior management lacks a backbone to take tough decisions. Decisions made in Sweden sometime absolutely make no sense.

Pros

Really inclusive environment and most of campus is already with ABW - activity based workplace (flexible seating).

Cons

Sometimes due to the very inclusive environment, decisions can take a little longer.

Pros

Great team of colleagues. Employee who are focused on ensuring their best. Excellent collaboration between teams. Colleagues who will look past the negative culture and continue to do their best for the company.

Cons

Culture & HR team who are clueless about global teams and work strategies. Focus on how many days and hours are spent in the office, rather than quality of work delivered. "You are being tracked by HR" has become the new way of life with the new culture. Total lack of communication after announcing job cuts are coming, due to awful truck sales and loss of market share in USA. Heavily bloated VP structure.
