Pros

Is a true multi national company, sharing knowledge and experiences from all around the world. Working in Ericsson, number one Telecom Solutions vendor in the world gives me the chance to be in the forefront of the Telecom arena.

Cons

Being in a very small Market Unit in Latin America takes away most of the benefits you get when working directly with the headquartes office in Sweden. Communication takes longer time and decision making process are way too long.

Pros

The most attracting things are international environment and multi-lingual working atmosphere, team work is the focus. You have the opportunity to get familiar with the bell-wether of the mobile telecommunication world. You have the opportunity to work with the people from around the global. You have certain package of welfare on the middle level of the pyramid. You have trainning opportunity per year. You have middle level competitive salary. You have chance to learn telecommunication technique. You have one team building activity per year. You have bonus according the to the performance of the company. You have the opportunity of salary increase per year.

Cons

working area is too focus, chance of internal job rotation is tiny. performance evaluation system is frigid. Relationship but not capability is the key.

Pros

General atmosphere of the office is upbeat. Amazing health and medical benefits. Plenty of opportunities to suggest and implement new ideas and processes. Most employees that do go above and beyond the normal "work day" do so because they want to, not because they have to. Very few employee terminations on average.

Cons

Salary compensation is still behind the average. Yearly review compensation in the past have been based off Senior Management for the department, not employee review, this is supposed to change this year. Due to this being a newly acquired office, very few standards and good practices in place, too many "stop-gap" measures from small company thinking in place.
