Pros

Great big company with resources, pay well and have great benefits. In general morale is good. Great location by the bay if you live in the east bay. I used to work for a startup organization, and I find the quality of work and enviornment much more stimulating here, with a much better work life balance.

Cons

communication between department, groups not great. Too much going on with lack of focus. Sometimes the managemnt strategy does not make sense. They recently had a management change, which may or may not affect which direction they go. The offices are not that great, but renovations are planned.

Pros

Abbott is a large company with lots of resources. Working in biotech you really feel like you are helping people live better lives on a daily basis. 401K matching program and health benefits were good, and vacation time was also generous.

Cons

Abbott's medical device business tends to acquire a lot of companies. Integration with new companies can be a big issue. Large company is less generous with stock options, and the stock price doesn't move very much, so the stock options can only be considered a nice little "bonus" to the annual salary. Pay seemed to lag behind other medical device companies in the area.
