      Pros

      the product the mission and the goals are admirable

      Cons

      Sr. Mgmt is too far removed from the actual work they focus on hitting a number or a milestone with disregard (they leave a lot of casualties on the field) Abbott is very very relationship driven, it is way more important to know someone then it is to do amazing work I literally was asked to take a role, let go of staff members, and put someone else on a Performance Improvement Plan on my day 1 of role, I inherited a huge mess to the point where I was not set up for success but rather to be the scape goat The leadership bias was so poor that others would get praised for work that I had done. Literally everyone knew that I did the work, exceed the objectives, and innovated in a org that drowns itself in bureaucracy (its hard to innovate at Abbott)

      Poor Upper Management

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Pay is good if you get it coming in. Co-workers are great. Very little overtime, at least for myself

      Cons

      Annual pay increases are really bad for a major company who annually brings in many billions in profits. People at this site have increased work loads due to employees who leave do not get replaced. At this site a facility was shuttered when it was the best in company for building the products it built but rumor had it upper manager did not like South Carolina! HR is worthless here, if you need help with questions about insurance, 401, etc you are told to call a number and you will get a position that was farmed out and now in the Middle East so good luck with that and this is from a HR representative stationed at Liberty. Upper management wants results even though the majority of the support staff has quit. It was really good when it was St Jude Medical. What can I say, it’s a woke company.
