      Not a great place for technology if you're into software - Software Development Engineer ABB Employee Review

      Pros

      Flat organization structure, Good Code of Conduct policy, Work Life balance

      Cons

      ABB might be a great employer in EMEA, but their Indian Offices are far from it. Mostly you'll be reporting to bosses who may not be technically strong enough. As far as software is concerned only maintanence releated jobs tend to be pushed to India, and mostly you get the feeling that everything should be okay as it was done ages ago, change is unneccesary. Expect factory culture, politics. Don't expect your compensation to grow much here. This company might be okay for managerial roles when you're over 40 etc. but as a young person in 20's this isn't the company to be, especially for a software engineer.

      Pros

      The management team works hard to encourage and support employees, recognizing that they are the company's greatest asset. Experienced team members are welcoming and take the time to train new employees, helping them succeed while emphasizing the importance of working safely. Leadership strives to be fair, consistent, and approachable. They actively listen to employee concerns, address issues in a timely manner, and foster a positive, supportive work environment where employees feel valued and respected.

      Cons

      One of the biggest drawbacks is the lack of air conditioning in the factory during the summer, making the work environment hot and at times uncomfortable. Overtime opportunities are also limited to a maximum of 56 hours per week, which may be disappointing for employees looking to work additional hours. While overtime is available, most employees can typically expect to work around eight hours of overtime each week.
