Pros

Good work-life balance, good location in terms of weather, nice people to work with in general.

Cons

Senior people are not motivated to work. They complain about lack of opportunity but they don't want to relocate. They just hang around and wait for retirement. Some incompetent line managers sit in their office everyday and do nothing. All they care about is getting paycheck.

Pros

No pros as there is nothing to say

Cons

Old-type traditional Management needs to go 25 more years to adapt to the modern digital world; it speaks a lot but is a highly unorganized company. That is the worst leadership I have seen. It is recommended for people with low technical and zero creative Knowledge. HR and Finance never understand employees and mistreat them.

Pros

1. Salary on Time 2. Salary Hike is min 5% with inclusive of 50% or more as variable pay 3. HR policies are good, but on paper 4. Women Empowerment is what they have recently started focusing on. 5. Good Learning if you are into R&D IT Team 6. Prefer to implement latest tech 7. If you want to survive for long, go for this org.

Cons

Before you read the below Cons, kindly do keep in mind that this is long running NON-IT Industry which is run on the basis of production and profit. My views are based on my interaction with different teams- Cons are- 1. Around 15-20% variable pay, which they say to pay more than 100% at the end of year but they actually dont pay even 40% and moreover they apply 30% Tax deduction on bonus pay. 2. Micro management, they dont understand or follow Agile Methodology Though as per ABB IT policy, we must follow Agile practices. 3. Top to Bottom Management, though as per HR policies, they are very transparent and follow unbiased Equality. This is not good for the moral support of Team mates. 4. They have hired a whole team of a bankrupted company which is harming the organization, complete NON-IT team working in IT industry. Hence, call it as No Team Play. 5. As this is a Product based manufacturing Industry, so, like other Non-IT organisations, Top Management prefer to favour their own employees, they dont think that after all this is ABB employee 6. Not good care of Employees and even Team Managers dont show interest as they are mostly from NON-IT Industries. 7. No deeds of motivation or entertainment. .
