Pros

Diversity, whether that's good or not, is debatable. International presences, can work in project at many places. This is good if you enjoy travelling.

Cons

Glass ceiling if you are not a swede/european. Pretty much no career advancement opportunity if you are non-european. You are stuck in technical area. Salary is not competitive.

Pros

Ericsson is a big company, and as such you get some of the benefits of being anonymous. In Sweden, there are strong unions and good unemployment coverage. Overtime is well paid. The jobs are varied and if you are lucky you can work in some very interesting projects.

Cons

The management is delocalizing everything to low cost countries without a proper understanding of the consequences. There is also an ongoing obsession about making everyone do everything and anything.
