If you’re in software look elsewhere!! - Recensione dipendente - Software Architect presso ABB

Software is not ABBs core business. They bought Ventyx to fill a portfolio hole and have tried to cobble together some disparate systems to provide customers with a ‘smoke and mirrors’ whole of enterprise software solution. Brisbane office will probably disappear soon as a result of increased outsourcing to Malaysia and Indonesia with a corresponding decrease in software quality. Not making any new sales and relying heavily on existing licenses. Many senior ‘Ventyx’ executives and tech people have already seen the writing on the wall and left. Mostly to G.E. or other more software savvy companies. Not much left in the way of tech talent in the Brisbane office. ABB Ellipse customers are seriously unhappy particularly with the MS Azure solution which has everyone constantly fighting support fires instead of innovating. Even Australian Defence wants to get rid of ABB Ellipse in favor of SAP so they won’t be able to rely on that backup for much longer which is sad because ABB Ellipse is still a technically superior product to SAP.
