My latest news (~2 yrs ago though) from friends working at Ericsson is that beside hardware they also started outsourcing software to far east entities. I don't have details, but over here they sack about 300 people every year, mostly developers. It might be different in Sweden though.

If by Far East you mean China, I’m not aware of any outsourcing there at all. Ericsson has big R&D centers there but I believe they are all in-house operations, owned and controlled directly by Ericsson.
Now, India on the other hand...

No idea, and Covid may have changed things, however pretty much every year he feared to be included in the list of people that had to go either directly or through a fake spin off, a common trick used by many corporations to lay off workers.
