Pros

The company provides affordable Healthcare options and has solid Human Resources Policies that are enforced consistently across the board.

Cons

Autoliv believes that each entry level employee is expendable and although they have company values, the people who are promoted tend to bully or make other people miserable to get ahead making sure that the people who get ahead create an unhealthy authoritarian based culture. In short, the company values never reach the production floor. They work people on their production floor 7 plus days straight but stagger the schedule so that they can avoid paying overtime. (7 on 2 off 8 on 4 off) If they are short-handed then expect to work months straight, vacation denied, though thats the only time overtime is paid. They give out jackets, t-shirts etc., but make you pay for it with a end of fiscal year "gift tax".

Pros

- Seems like the company is growing at a very fast rate with many career opperunties (if management would you switch) - Very helpful co-workers

Cons

- Very fast pace work envonirment, not much time to really learn or get trained - Not much appreciation of employees from what I have experienced - Seems like management does not want to improve faclities/test labs even though the company is growing at a fast rate and the programs are worth a lot of money - No good profit sharing/bonus - Seems like management is hesitant to let people move within the company and when they do allow it, it can take months if not a year to transfer

Pros

Good facilities Constant growth Friendly, relaxed and inclusive atmosphere Politically correct Not pushy on doing overtime Good benefits

Cons

Too much talk, too many procedures, too bureaucratic A lot of corporate BS Scheduling meetings for discussing the setting-up of other meetings Boring and uninteresting work, too dependent on what the headquarters (that are abroad) want from you. Your job title might say one thing, but you should be open towards doing whatever (no matter how different to what you were expecting) is asked from you. Long and useless training courses and seminars Too rigid Creativity isn't very appreciated If you are an obedient, 'yes, sir' kind of man, there are ways for you to go up the corporate 'ladder'
