Pros
My colleagues here are smart, dedicated, hardworking, and polished. I definitely will be taking some of the good habits and learnings regarding client facing skills. I hate every minute here, but I am also grateful.
Cons
Don’t work here unless you’re desperate. - Weird cult-like Pro Swedish wannabe tech startup culture. Pressure to drink the Koolaid or be ostracized. It’s not acceptable to criticize decisions of the Stockholm office or your Swedish colleagues. - You will be a second class citizen if you’re not Swedish. I wouldn’t recommend taking a position here in an office outside of Sweden or Poland. Employee benefits seem to be the best for Swedish employees. - Low pay (This isn’t just a normal complaint: I am literally interviewing for identical roles paying nearly 50% more) - Long hours culture and pressure to work to the extreme - Will skimp on employee benefits to maintain profitability on client accounts (cheap hotels during travel, etc.) - Product is very very niche and your experience will mean NOTHING outside of the aftermarket parts service industry - Nepotism in the Stockholm office (inappropriate romantic relationships between superior and junior, etc.)
