Pros

As part fo the Abbott family, you have the advantages of all of the medical and other benefits the company offers. Yearly increases, great performance bonus opportunities.

Cons

Culture is dysfunctional. Your success if not just your performance, but who you are best buddies with. People get promoted and are given opportunities that are based upon who your friend is. Poor work life balance. As one VP noted, "I don't care which 12 hours out of 24hours I get, as long as I get my 12 hours from you". APOC comes first.

Pros

Salary, company car, cell phone, laptop, and the fact that you mostly worked in the field and autonomously without being micromanaged. Was there for 14 years.

Cons

Towards the end of my career there (the last 3 years) it became an extremely stressful environment, and they were just looking to shrink the sales force without even wanting to terminate and pay unemployment, or offer severance packages to the employees.

Pros

Excellent and stable company. You have the ability to grow and perform many different job functions without ever leaving a company.

Cons

Very risk averse and little to no work life balance. Lower salaries that are offset by excellent benefits. Very few women leaders at the Executive level.
