      ABB Corporate Research - Incompetent Management

      Researcher
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      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.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The line staff up to middle management are some of the best in the business.

      Cons

      Upper-level management to the very top of the organization lack leadership, vision, and strategy. The company is very engineering-centric with little to no focus on their customers. Furthermore, the company structure is set-up such that each business unit competes with other business units which leads to margin erosion and worse. Finally, the company as a whole does very little for their communities - there is no organized philanthropy done by the company, which is a genuine shame as I know that most employees would contribute and even volunteer.
