Pros

Smart and dedicated engineers as colleagues, good work-life balance, transparency in sharing technical know-how, very good benefits (for a non-Internet company).

Cons

Ericsson is no longer a wireless technology leader - the Asian vendors have caught up and in many instances overtaken E///. The next two years will be painful as 5G money won't start coming in until 2019. All major decisions are taken in Stockholm by Swedes, limited career prospects at a remote site. Compensation is below par for the Bay Area. Media division is next on the chopping block. Morale diminishing after every quarterly report.
