      Pros

      Opportunities to change course in your career. A large, diverse company that is willing to let employees move into different positions. Benefits are generous. Recent efforts to boost work-life balance are great.

      Cons

      On the science side, many of the managers are great scientists given promotions solely boost their salaries into acceptable ranges. This means many of these people lack management skills. The HR department is sub-standard. Difficult to deal with HR in manager-employee disputes or internal job search. They tell you don't meet job qualifications and then 3 months later you find out someone even less qualified was given the job.

      Pros

      Working in the Bay Area is great. Comfortable 9-5 job. Also get great perks including ordering EAS products as well as pedisure and similac. The benefits for employees is great and Abbott is a very stable company since it is in so many different areas of health care.

      Cons

      Sometimes projects can be very slow and take awhile to complete. The surrounding area of Abbott is not the safest place to be. Abbott needs more engineers so that projects can work faster and so there is more manpower to finish projects.

      AMO UK review - placement

      Pros

      Friendly people to work with. Was taken on 4 trips away during my year there, good fun. The company spends a lot of money on meeting away like Spain or Europe - got to stay in nice hotels and have nice dinners. Everyone got to get there hair down and really got to socialise together.

      Cons

      Quite dull office environment. Low pay for placement students. I found the office location very remote and there is no much going on out there. Very small choice of places to go during lunch etc. Also quite a small number of people working in the office.
