Pros

Abbott will support differenct career experiences for the best performers. Abbott has a sharp pencil and great financial systems. That and marketing are the two biggest reasons they have been so successful for generations. Overall, they pay very well compared to competitors and industry in general.

Cons

Too many HR training initiatives.

Pros

Abbott Labs offers great growth planning and career opportunities for those willing to relocate and sacrifice their work life balance. They offer great benefits with stock options, 401 k matching and year end profit sharing.

Cons

The cons would probably apply to any pharmaceutical company in todays market place. What they ask of you and what you are able to produce are unrealistic. It has become increasing difficult to see physcians and leave samples at offices. Many have adopted a no see policy but corporate still requires you to see a predetermined amount of people. Representatives and Managers are often left with moral delimas. Employee satisfaction and empowerment has been long forgotten concepts.
