Pros

-I'm sure this varies from department/team, but I've found my manager and coworkers to be very friendly and helpful. They genuinely want me to succeed in this position and are always willing to set aside time to answer any questions/provide training. -The overall onboarding program at Boston is very organized. Important links and HR information is readily available and easy to locate. -Company culture is very supportive -Unlimited sick-time for salaried employees -Hybrid work-mode and general flexibility -Employee programs for shopping discounts (Perks at Work) -Daycare available at some facilities

Cons

-Salaried employees still have to track their time -PTO accrued monthly rather than lump sum at start of year -No additional support for paying off past student loans. At Abbott Labs they will contribute 5% of your salary to your 401K if you're paying at least 2% of your salary towards student loans. This means that rather than paying your student loans and contributing to your 401K, Abbott encourages you to put more money towards your student loans and will add 5% of your salary into your 401k for FREE. -No health incentive programs for discounts to health plan.

Pros

Good pay. Good benefits. My coworkers who were at the same level as me were supportive.

Cons

Work environment was highly stressful and often unsustainable. Management created a culture where employees were frequently overworked, undervalued, and burned out. Communication from leadership was inconsistent and their expectations changed frequently. Work-life balance was very poor. Employee concerns did not get taken seriously unless they directly impacted company performance. When an HR compliant involving my supervisor was filed for his behavior with input from the majority of the team members, no meaningful action was taken beyond stating it was handled "per BSC policy". Opportunities for promotion and career advancement were limited. Employees who treated others poorly were often still rewarded or praised as long as performance metrics were met. There was a clear culture of favoritism and hierarchy, and employees outside of those circles could work above and beyond expectations without receiving recognition or advancement opportunities. In 2 years, there were 12 employees who were fired in a 10 person department.
