      Pros

      It was a rewarding career.

      Cons

      Things are changing and it is not a place to plan a future. It will be a totally consumer brand in the near future.

      Abbott is a great place to work for someone who fits the culture.

      Pros

      There is a big, corporate campus feel to working at Abbott. There are a lot of benefits offered on site that are great for families in the area. Being a large company, there are many places where you could land. Miles White is an excellent CEO who can deliver on a strategic plan on a consistent basis.

      Cons

      Abbott is a little slow to adapt to an ever-changing workplace. I felt very behind the times using older software tools that have replacements that are much more efficient that have been on the market for years. The culture is very hierarchical and feels very dated. The different groups have their own demands of shared services but there is no clear 'Global' ownership on many things. The Abbott Park campus is also very far from the city of Chicago, so you are limited in where you can reside if you do not want to handle the commute

      Pros

      Pride in working to save and improve lives Pay and benefits

      Cons

      Every group that is considered "overhead" is extremely under-resourced so people are burning out No outside hires for 2 years now and the internal talent pool is dried up Expectations of employees are beyond unrealistic Middle and upper management is very clique-ish
