Pros

Good benefits Good severance package Still has a pension not many companies offer that anymore Great opportunity to travel even though they have Telepresence which no one uses as many old time employees can barely use a computer.

Cons

Terrible corporate culture Not much progress for advancement. You probably have to wait for someone to die to be promoted. Employees spend more time sucking up than actual work, which is how to get promoted.

Pros

Lots of opportunity to learn and grow; Employee safety and compliance with policy and procedure is a priority;

Cons

Not all managers at this company are good leaders, and a persons success in many instances depends on the leadership of their manager. Timelines are not always realistic but this is not always communicated upwards.

Pros

Working here gave great exposure to medical device and the corporation in general was well run. If you like to travel internationally, Abbott is for you.

Cons

Employees were unfriendly, and would not cooperate. No idea of project management - in the end it was not worth the effort to stay. Over time the environment wore on me. I had 4 different bosses in my time there, about one every 12 months.
