In the first half of its existence, Sundbyberg saw a strong expansion of industrial activity, and most residents were industrial workers, but in the 1940s the industry almost entirely disappeared from Sundbyberg. By the 1970s warehouses and IT businesses had established themselves instead, and an attempt to establish industry in Hallonbergen had failed due to high rental costs.<ref name=kulturarvstockholm>{{cite web |url=https://www.kulturarvstockholm.se/industrihistoria/kommunernas-industrihistoria/sundbyberg/ |title=Industriminnen i Sundbyberg, 1978, Länsstyrelsen i Stockholms län |access-date=26 Aug 2020 |publisher=Kulturarv Stockholm}}</ref> Today the service sector dominates, with Sundbyberg having become a place with office workers, as a result of Sundbyberg becoming more central as Stockholm has expanded and public transport has been strengthened.<ref name=historia/> The most common professions for people working in Sundbyberg are (in order from most employed): IT developer, banker, human relations, secretary, business seller/purchaser, accountant, retail clerk, truck/bus driver, teacher, tax collector.<ref name=2016stats/> There are office districts in Central Sundbyberg (Sundbyberg centrum and Allén), Rissne (Ursviks Entré) and Hallonbergen (Sundby Park).
