Pros

Good company with a good work atmosphere. Most of the supervisors and great!

Cons

The corporate office has forced "wokeness" on the plant. Women are complaining about sharing a bathroom and shower with a transgender male. I don't blame them. One women told me she "would never use the restroom in the plant again! ABB has told us to not "turn the other way" when there is a problem. This is a problem. It seems that DEI doesn't include the natural modesty/dignity of women. Or their chastity and virtue. Exposing themselves to a transgender male is offensive to most women. I really like this company, it has been a blessing to me and my family for many years. Unfornately due to the transgender issue, (I have cross dressing friends whom I love) I would not recommend someone working here. I don't see any hatred in anyone but just a desire for privacy. One lady told me that management said "if she has a problem with sharing a bathroom with a transgender male that they would provide a special bathroom for her". She said, I don't want a "special bathroom, I just want to be able to use the female bathrooms!" It isn't fair to the women in our plant. Most people understand that. Thanks.

Pros

Flexible work schedule Yearly bonus if unit performs pay is average for industry don't be fooled by permissive vacation

Cons

read the title...least diverse place I have ever worked it is very sad the good ole boys make sure to keep themselves employed you'd be hard pressed to find someone under 50 that works there it is a typical corporate cesspool the amount of turnover is very high managers are not held accountable for their teams performance ABB lies to customers and treats them like they are superior to them
