AbbVie reviews

Over the 3 years I was with the company I witnessed numerous violations against AbbVie's' policies and FDA regulations. I constantly tried to change what was going on but Global Metrology Management didn't care. Violations Summary: (Elements of each as they relate to the Metrology program at AbbVie) Pharmaceuticals 21 CFR 211 Biologics 21 CFR 606 Medical Devices 21 CFR 820 Human Tissues 21 CFR 1271 Advice to potential Metrology candidate: The Global Metrology Group is highly resistive to change due to legacy Abbott employees and weak Management. If your work ethic is to follow Metrological standard's and be an agent for change, this place is not for you. I tried for 3 years and 10 months. I didn't leave because I was shown the door I left of my own volition.

The company has a caste system. The caste is divided by grade. Managers have grade 18 and above, while minion employees have grade 17 and below. Minion employees are the life blood of the company, yet have no stock, 8% bonus with no performance modifier, and will have to jump through many layers of politics to get promoted. Meanwhile, managers will qualify for stock, 15% bonus with performance modifier ( up to 200% modifier), and exclusive access to fast-track promotion. As the company tries to consolidate three sites in the Bay Area and move to SSF, in the words of Tom Hudson, the company’s CSO, this move will bring more opportunity to everyone. Yet, what we saw in the past three years were fast track promotions to all the managers. Now there are a lot of Directors, Managers, Senior Directors, etc etc. The minion employees are left behind with no clear vision of advancement. At the same time, the managers have the privilege to work from home in their little castles for a foreseeable future, and the minion employees are all recalled on-site to work. To add salt to the injury, the company took back the free lunch benefit for onsite workers, and leave the employees struggle to find lunch. The implementation of Eat Club has been a disaster.
