Pros

Nice colleagues are still around, from the ABB days.

Cons

management is extremely short-sighted, with no long-term strategy or interest in working towards long-term results. Lots of old issues on deliveries, sales has to manage these rather than investing in new deals. Complete mission impossible for salespeople, and extreme pressure from management has created an environment with lots of health issues. You have to fight to get commission paid out. Talks about diversity, this is not the case and no inclusion - groups of people are building their own empiries.

Pros

Diversity and sustainability focus good. Global company with ability to live across the world.

Cons

Pay not competitive to market. Difficult to attract top talent with non-competitive pay. Company slow to make decisions and not clear how they want to operate. Recent reorganization/ restructure of organization as well as direction makes difficult for employees to understand where the company is going. Lack of communication down to the lower level managers and day to day individual contributors of how we are going to get to the 2030 plan goals lead to many employees not understanding where the company is going and why. Organization structure is so complex its hard to turn a ship around.
