I like ABB’s flexibility and openness with employees. The atmosphere is still great and people I meet here are one of the many reasons why I like coming to the office every day.
The best thing about this job is that it's not purely financial, but you need to understand the business to support these teams in the best possible way.
Looking back over two decades, it’s a challenge to mention how ABB has changed my life professionally and personally. Today, I can clearly state some of the aspects that merge ABB's story with mine – values, family, people, global challenges, adaptability, teamwork, dedication, resilience, and the drive for professional and personal development.
Regina | Global Product Market Manager for Indoor Products in ELDS, Spain
I have spent most of my career in a male-dominated industry. Contrary to the common perception that women might be overlooked in such an industry, I have always felt respected, welcomed, and included. Throughout these experiences, I’ve been very fortunate to have worked with many wonderful leaders, both male and female.
Building connections beyond your immediate team can open unexpected doors and create valuable opportunities. Also, you never know when you need someone’s experience, knowledge, or contacts – you can truly build yourself a solid foundation by letting other people in!

Femtec GmbH was founded in 2001 by EAF Berlin and TU Berlin with the aim of connecting female STEM students in business and science and supporting them in their personal career development. The goal is to develop young female talent for STEM professions: Femtec qualifies excellent STEM talents already in school and offers determined female students excellent career prospects with the Career-Building Scholarship.
SWE is a global organization which strives to empower women in their careers as engineers and leaders while demonstrating the value that diversity and inclusion (D&I) provides to engineering and technology professions. ABB is proud to be a part of SWE’s Corporate Partnership Council (CPC), which annually sponsors over 120 employees with global SWE memberships, and subsequently supports SWE’s mission towards gender parity in the workplace, a goal that aligns closely with ABB’s own D&I strategy.
Ever since 2015, ABB Finland and Women in Tech have been working together towards a shared goal: to promote diversity and inclusion within the technology sector. This collaboration aims to support and encourage women in their tech career paths and create a more inclusive environment.
Our partnership with the FIA Girls on Track program seeks to empower the next generation of women by encouraging them into STEM careers.
