Pros

Leader in the field. Treats people fairly and values its employees. Visionary in its field. Global scale and opportunities to work in other countries and on diverse projects and customers. Outstanding culture of collaboration and nice place to work. Long tenure of employees leads to people who really know the products and the technology. Priotities are set in Sweden and sometimes ignore the local market requirements.

Cons

Very collaborative makes slow decision making (but company has a long time horizon). Low performance culture. Training is on the job, poor formal induction and structure training. Expected to learn by 'just being around a long time'. Tolerance of mediocrity Progression based on length of service and relationships to Sweden rather than competence or ability.
