Pros

Highly dynamic and extremely focused organization around industrial automation and power technologies. Inherently global in nature with a lot of local empowerment.

Cons

Can becoming highly factional, which appears to be an ABB phenomenon. I am not sure if this can be a negative or not. If you do not like to lock horns to defend your contribution to the company, this may be a negative.
