Pros

Good pension, but you will be stressed out and dead before you can draw it. There were lots of pros when first joining. But they soon stop them once you are tied in

Cons

No mentoring. Managers & Directors use bullyboy tactics. No career progression. Work evenings for free. Management have no idea how to walk the floor. UK NHS is a shambles behind the curtain. God help us.

Very poor management, everything-now-all-the-time.

Pros

Employees are open about how poor the state of affairs are. Good products but older generation. How can SJM acquisition save stents?

Cons

After company wide massive IT layoffs & disconnected enterprise systems, expect to call 800 # for any and every need & be put in a queue. HR, finance are scant, expect to call Chicago for a lot of help. Not strategic & not cohesive management leads to multiple wasted efforts and last minute rush on all efforts. No training for new managers, no on-boarding assistance or requirements, everyone fend for yourself. In-fighting & low morale completely tolerated. Overall, archaic systems, poor middle & upper management, lagging behind in product development. Look elsewhere.

Abbott Hematology - Employee Beware

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

The individual contributors at this organization are great, hard-working folks.

Cons

There are WAY too many chiefs. The Sr Leadership is horrible. There is no concern or respect for the employees. The management team believes people are robots and should be at their beck and call 24/7. The culture at Abbott Hematology in Santa Clara is toxic and there is no desire to change the culture.
