Pros

Swedish (Parent) focus is amazing. Small teams work well with each other to accomplish duties. New faces all the time in facilities.

Cons

C-suite has a large ego problem. Most are not in tune with current employee needs, but can "tell" you what the employees need through talking points only that do not align to reality. HIGH attrition rate allows for all those new faces all the time. American management mentality is outdated and stuck in the late 1990's for processes. When management defends this, they use new applications and spend huge amounts of time and money to make a new streamlined platform to work like they have always done it in the past. Confusion all the time on applications. When asked why we have 3 platforms doing the same thing, an answer cannot be given (always some excuse somewhere).

Pros

Saab Sensis was great. What has happened to the company in the last year is not. The main bright side here is that with big contracts come big losses and with the inability to deliver on these big contracts, upper managements time here is a ticking time bomb.

Cons

Saab sensis is no longer a commercial stand alone company. We were forced to merge with the military side which is run by someone who was handed the position on a silver platter by his daddy. The guy is so disconnected with reality and how to create a positive work environment. Mr. Smith actively refuses to acknowledge the realities; high number of open positions, lacking of compensation in comparison to other companies in the area, inability to deliver on deadlines on these massive contracts. He is an inevitable failure and it is unfortunate that it will take as long as it will for the Swedes to recognize this.
