Ok company if you are Swedish

Pros

They pay your salary on time.

Cons

It doesn't matter how hard you work, how good you are at your job, or the results you bring, if you're not Swedish, they will always promote a Swedish person over you. Nepotism is everywhere, and this company only cares about pleasing stakeholders. If you see any job postings about improving the user experience and all that, don’t believe it. You won’t be able to make any real changes because you're blocked at every turn. The company doesn’t organize decent events, not even something as simple as pizza on Fridays. They’re extremely restrictive, and alcohol is never allowed. We need to make our own food to bring to Christmas dinner and other events like Easter. Now they want everyone back in the office five days a week. But that’s not even the biggest issue, you have to fight to find a desk, and people talk loudly right next to you, making it terrible for meetings. No matter how much experience you have, during performance evaluations they’ll say, “But you don’t have the Volvo experience,” as if Volvo were on another planet and none of your UX background matters, because they believe they’re just that special.

Not a very good place to work.

Pros

They are pretty flexible at times but in all honesty not a lot of pro’s.

Cons

No room for advancement. Pay is stagnant. The amount of corporate nonsense is overwhelming at times. They often say one thing but do another and often backtrack. Management is clueless but “know everything” which is annoying. I honestly don’t think they care anymore. What was a great company has turned into some corporate nonsense that will literally drive you insane.
