Pros

Working with talented people world-wide, one of few companies where Indian employees are treated on-par with respect to responsibilities and accountability, time-off policy, relaxed/casual environment, lots of cultural events, family-like atmosphere, lots of international travel opportunities (long-term and short-term), fantastic product portfolio.

Cons

Politics, mediocre people are retained/promoted because of 'GodFather-dom', line and functional management are separated - which creates confusion during goal-setting and ratings, average salaries, below-average hikes, hierarchical management structure, line managers are more powerful and influential than the technical senior people, moving between divisions by-choice is difficult despite HR initiatives.

Pros

ABB has a variety of interesting project to work on and the management lets you pursue these projects with freedom. They also have a great safety culture. The working culture depends plant to plant. Most of the plants have a welcoming family-like culture. Generally the working hours are a little over 40 a week and under medium stress.

Cons

The management changes a lot which creates distrust between "blue-collar" and "white collar" workers. They pay lip-service to improvement programs such as Six-Sigma and Lean but often don't have the push to really achieve these.
