      Work/life-balance is possible

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Entrepreneurial spirit gets recognized and rewarded - you sometimes get the opportunity to drive your own ideas if you can convince your boss; good place that recognizes that there is life outside of work; if you work for a good boss you can go a long way; many oppportunities tow work international but (depending on job category) not always required

      Cons

      Highly political; personal growth and feedback is mostly dependent on you manager and your grandfather (managers manager) - if one of them sucks you can have a hard time; No strategy for talent management; no long-term planning for most employees; very technocratic and silo-oriented; only few people forcus on the best for the company - the not-invented-here spirit is to strong.

      Ericsson... the place to be

      Account manager

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      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.

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