Pros

Pay for performance. Base is low compared to other major pharma companies, but IC is high if you can be the top in the region you are in.

Cons

Career development, hard to move out of phamra field sales into something more secure in the Abbott family.

Pros

I enjoy working for Abbott Labs. There is plenty of room for advancement. Benefits are good and they are very friendly towards working mothers.

Cons

There has been a lot of lay-offs in the last few years in my division (ADD) and an attempt at a sell-off and now at Lake County, IL there is downsizing that threatens my position.

Pros

1) Large company that has a lot of lateral movement available 2) Online & classroom training programs that were great for learning new marketable skills

Cons

1) If you are not management, you will not be properly evaluated and compensated 2) Company is not proactive about fixing problems. Potential problems are ignored until they become nearly catastrophic. 3) The health benefits are very expensive and bare bones; especially for a company of this size. I worked at small business with better health benefits that were cheaper.
