Pros

Acceptable training, good salary and benefits. Local management gives freedom to work and develop, good balance work / personal life

Cons

Career opportunities not to open. Too many changes of direction, every two years or so, there´s a new strategy; After five years of working at Sandvik, new"core" values. "Focus on client" shouldn´t be some words printed on paper only.....

Pros

Awesome work environment. Everyone got along well. They were very lenient in every aspect of the work day as long as you got the job done.

Cons

Lack of communication and teamwork. The company was bought out and EVERYTHING went down hill from there. HR is a joke. Favoritism is prominent, if you aren't one of the favorites you wouldn't survive the place.
