ABBYY culture

  • What Makes ABBYY a Great Place to Work

    ABBYY stands out as a great place to work because of the flexibility it offers employees. There’s no mandate for working some amount of hours or days in the office, and hybrid work arrangements are encouraged.

    “We understand that it would be a disadvantage to require people to be physically in a location,” says Rares Man, head of internal communications and employer branding at ABBYY.

    In addition to geographical flexibility, ABBYY allows employees to create their own working hours. “Output is more important than input,” says Rares, and employees cite the company’s trust in them to do their jobs however they see fit as their favorite feature of working at ABBYY.

    What Makes ABBYY a Great Place to Work

  • ABBYY: At the Forefront of AI

    While everybody talks about being an AI company these days, ABBYY has been there since its inception in 1989. With over 400 patents in technology and some of the smartest people in the industry, ABBYY’s team has veteran employees who provide new hires a ton of value.

    “Peer learning is a huge element of working at ABBYY,” says Rares. People take pride in working for an AI company that’s been leading the way in the industry for decades.

    Being an innovator at the forefront of technological advancement, working on ABBYY’s products is an exciting opportunity for both newcomers and long-term employees of the company.

  • Events at ABBYY

    Being a global company with thousands of employees doesn’t stop ABBYY from getting the team together for company-wide and regional events.

    For example, the North American teams all met up in Mexico, while European teams got together in Germany. Events aren’t purely based on geography, either. The sales, marketing, and customer success teams get a chance to all meet face-to-face in Barcelona, allowing for a bonding experience that rarely occurs at such widely distributed companies.

    ABBYY recognizes that, as a company with employees in 16 different countries, taking time for face-to-face gatherings is crucial for keeping everyone connected and engaged.

  • ABBYY’s Culture of Transparency, Respect, and Simplicity

    Transparency and respect are the cornerstones of how ABBYY’s culture operates. Leadership is transparent about its expectations, and employees are trusted to meet those goals in whatever way they see fit.

    ABBYY also tries to keep its processes simple. When you’re dealing with the complicated technology of machine learning, there’s no reason to overcomplicate internal processes.

  • Values and Principles at ABBYY

    ABBYY has three core values and principles to live by: Put the customer first, Do the right thing, and Be a team player. 

    Putting the customer first doesn’t just apply to client-facing roles; HR serves employees just as much as engineers support product development and the sales team serves actual customers. “Everybody has a network of customers,” says Rares.

    Doing the right thing is about acting with integrity. Transparency and trust are vital, and nobody hides what they’re working on or issues that arise.

    Being a team player means going above your formal job description to help your team and being ready to wear multiple hats to best serve the moment’s needs.

    Values and Principles at ABBYY

  • Work-life Balance at ABBYY

    Folks at ABBYY understand that there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to work-life balance. They understand that a young single person has a different set of needs as a parent.

    ABBYY allows people to create their own balance according to their lifestyle and circumstances. Working with people across time zones from Australia to California means that this type of flexibility is built into the culture of ABBYY.
