Pros

Centrally located near train station, fika culture

Cons

Poor management style and philosophy on one-way views / politics, felt biased against non-Swedes, especially non-consistent application of internal policies ("inner circle" team members felt exempt from various internal policies); people talk behind your back, even the Head of Tax will speak negatively about team members with other people (literally calling someone "a waste of air" or making negative comments about their physical attributes in a vain attempt at humor?); hypocritical behaviors were used to describe the "Swedish" style.

Pros

Inside work, some of the lower tier management isn't bad.

Cons

Huge problem with people threatening others and attempting to engage in fighting, management knows and does nothing, below average pay even with overtime considered, harassment running wild both employee on employee and management on employee, company constantly says they want to promote new ideas but never really implement them, when they do its half hearted, blueprints are constantly wrong, no training for job specific tasks.
