Scania reviews

Younger first line management sometimes more concerned with using buzzwords correctly and limiting their risks while sweet-talking than being realistic and work with what they got to produce the best. Their ability to walk the talk is low. Little product/customer knowledge in many parts of the development. Also, especially, at younger management. This may be a long term way to just mediocre products while ramping up. If you're kidless, not interested in the company sports/culture/etc events, and don't care too much about the organisational stuff, well, you can certainly find much better paid jobs elsewhere. And advance faster. Job security sometimes too good... Rotten apples remain and spoil the other good ones.

First, diversity: the racial ceiling at my place is so low that many impactful decisions are informally made in Swedish, perhaps partly because too much office politics and small talks up at a certain level happens in Swedish. There are indeed some upward opportunities for non-Swedes if you're willing to take on one of those ugliest of problems that no one wants to touch, but you have a disadvantaged risk-reward profile in your undertaking. There is a strange kind of talent drain: talent exists but either nobody listens to them, or they quit the doer camp to join the talker camp because they surely are smart enough to recognize the dynamics. There is officially upward mobility tracks for technical people to counter exactly this problem, but the system doesn't seem to be very effective because engineers are more often evaluated by the flashiness of their work than the often quieter technical excellence.
