Pros

1. Fully flexible working hours 2. There is almost little to no intervention by management, and interns are expected to directly coordinate with their mentors 3. I was given full access to one of their robots

Cons

There is no actual research going on in ABB India Everything is a gimmick and the employees are highly fatigued and frustrated to provide any actual help to the interns I wasn't assigned any project for 2 weeks after I joined the company and after continuously nagging my Project Manager, I was asked to single-handedly revive a dead project with no resources or guidance from my mentor. Other co-interns had similar experience.

Pros

- Exposure to large-scale manufacturing systems and cross-functional projects - Can build strong manufacturing and quality engineering experience quickly - Competitive pay and solid benefits for the area

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
