The brakes are not weak in terms of capability... they're just a bit undersized as far as wear characteristic goes.
Expect to replace pads at 25-30K miles, and if you don't, expect to replace rotors soon after. And front rotors aren't exactly cheap. ($97 or so each from Volvo.)
Rear brakes are basically the same as a 240, 740, etc. so those are cheap...
