Pros

Building wheelchairs is cool, in theory. But not for this place. This company is rife with hypocrisy, lies and secrets. And that's the good part.

Cons

I wish someone would have warned me before applying. The division I worked for is in the red. Big time. Despite corporate claims to the contrary, I suspect layoffs are coming in the near future. Don't bother applying here! Management is demanding huge cost reductions, with no changes to form, fit or function. And of course, an unobtainable schedule was set. The employees are mostly ok, but some key players are weak kneed sycophants. Hard to blame them tho, since speaking your mind is tantamount to treason and could easy cost one's job. Management has created a combative environment, on purpose, which is terrible for morale, rewards backstabbing and chokes communication. This place is toxic and not just because it's close to Hanford.

Pros

They have some very good products that make a difference in the life of anyone who is disabled. The overall benefits, and company culture is ok.

Cons

Overall Sweden seems like the place to be. Every other world wide location is treated second class. There is no integrity nor trust. They won't live up to promises made and don't treat their employees well. Take this on a case by case basis as some of the management seems to be ok. But overall the company is problematic and promises of promotion or job responsibilities should not be trusted.

Pros

Noble and high quality product.

Cons

The only way to advance is to smoke dope or drink with the president. Knowledge and hard work will get you nowhere.
