      Could be the best of the pharmas if it put in a new leader before it's too late.

      Pros

      It's a leader in the pharma field. If you get on the "fast track", the sky is the limit...however, it's so huge, that most folks get swallowed up. Great benefit package.

      Cons

      As with many large corps, age discrimination is a fact of life. Unless you are in upper middle management, don't expect to work here if you are over 55. It's so wrapped up in regulation that it's difficult to get anything done. Upper management has a habit of putting "touchy-feely" crap in place to hide the blemishes from those who will buy into the scam.

      Abbott Labs is a great company with a stable future.

      Pros

      Abbott Labs offers great benefits packages, lots of room for advancement, many growth opportunities. Abbott is a very stable company, even in the face of our current economic slumps.

      Cons

      It is a large company and sometimes it seems they are in the position of following the industry instead of leading. This is not Abbott's fault, but the Healthcare sector is heavily regulated and the company's every move is scrutinized down to the last detail. As an employee, this can add many layers to the simplest of everyday tasks.

      Abbott is a good, not great place to work

      Pros

      The people that work at Abbott are amazing. I feel privileged to work among the most talented people I have ever met. There is a tremendous amount of respect for the individual. A work/life balance is greatly supported.

      Cons

      The company is extremely conservative and very slow. It takes a long time to implement changes/improvements. This can be extremely frustrating.
