Pros

ABB has great company policies globally

Cons

ABB AU has a very weird structure, each division head is sort of the CEO of their division and runs the team as they wish (even HR). Very toxic work culture, sick people are forced to work from office, managers have a free hand to do as they wish with their team (good/bad). Motion business division is the worst.

Cons

Work-life balance can be inconsistent depending on department and production demands * Advancement opportunities may feel limited without moving into management or relocating * Communication and management consistency can vary between shifts/departments * Production pressure and changing priorities can create stress in quality-related roles * Some roles may require overtime or schedule flexibility that can be difficult for employees with family responsibilities * Recognition for process improvements and extra responsibilities may not always match workload expectations * Culture can feel more production-focused than employee-focused at times
