      Pros

      It's a great big company with tons of divisions and products where one right out of college can learn a tremendous deal about industry and how corporations work.

      Cons

      With most large companies comes with bureaucracy and Abbott was no exception. My site also had lots of old people that did not care to improve the company, as long as the day-to-day was accomplished.

      Pros

      Solid Fortune 500 company with tons of resources, quality products, marketing, and training to back you up. You will become a better Sales Rep and Businessperson. Numerous condition specific products and healthcare call points that prepare you for better sales opportunities in the future.

      Cons

      Culture changed very quickly in the past 5 years. What once was stated from management as "you manage your territory", it is now micro managed for you by them. Big Pharma mind-set is now the way of life. Get on the "Blue Train" or be gone. Older Reps with a record of success are now targeted for dismissal if not seen as "dynamic" or willing to roll-over and learn corporate's new tricks. Pay is good but below that of Abbott Primary Care samplers and caterers. Tons of busy work to be done "before/after-selling-time" and ride-withs that in reality take away from face time with customers. Not fun anymore.
