Honest Review from Marketing Manager

Pros

The pay is good and the organization overall is quite generous.

Cons

Money can’t buy you happiness. It’s a cliche, but so true. Abbott will work you to the ground, and when you are successful you will be rewarded with more work. There is no such thing as a work life balance. Vacations, holidays, after hours ... these are all fair game. Fire drills for information are not uncommon. Executive management takes great pride in the amount of work they give to people, this is a part of the culture. Think long and hard before taking a job here. Is the extra money worth the stress the organization will put on you?

Pros

great co-workers and sweet company car

Cons

Leadership. I stood to make a lot of money as in January a new business model was being put in place where CS's stood to be paid on commission. I opened a new account in December that placed a huge order to be billed on January 2nd 2018. Somewhere in Mid-December my sales associate concocted some crazy story that I was on drugs. This was while I was in the hospital passing multiple kidney stones. When I returned to work, my sales associate called my wife without my knowledge and told her I was on drugs. The leadership pulled me in for a mandatory observed urine screen. The urine screen was negative for any and all drugs. Later that day my wife moved out of our home thinking I was on drugs. Abbott suspended me for 3 weeks and then fired me citing that I was not at a facility on a certain day that I was scheduled to be there- another lie. I will be suing Abbott once I get my life backj in order as they have created suchj chaos in my life it would be a disservice to let it go without punishment. My attorney is chomping at the bit to proceed. I saved every email, every text and so has my wife. I will update after abbott pays the price for discriminatory harassment.

Pros

Good benefits, not much else good to say.

Cons

Like working in high school. People are petty, mean and childish. The only concern is making their bonus. No interest in career development besides the managers. Toxic place to work.
