Vantaggi

There are some great people at this company. Most locations have a great onsite cafeteria where you can purchase Abbott products at a substantial discount.

Svantaggi

Extremely disorganized organization. Management is terrible. They push cost savings and innovation but don't recognize your efforts and turn down all innovative ideas. And don't dare bring any ideas to anyone above your manager! If you do, you can pretty much kiss your job goodbye. There are many positions being outsourced so there are several foreign contractors both on and off site. There is an awful language barrier which causes inefficiencies and multiple errors. Positions are constantly being eliminated causing the work to be distributed amongst the remaining employees often resulting in 60 hour plus work weeks. In my experience, my manager was literally a complete liar. She would tell me one thing but tell my coworker the complete opposite. Certain people in management positions were placed in these positions without any management experience or training.

Vantaggi

• Strong brand and market position • Talented individual contributors and subject matter experts sprinkled throughout the organization • Opportunity to work on products that impact many patients

Svantaggi

These comments reflect experience within Abbott Diabetes Care. • Culture can feel political and risk-averse, with difficult issues often addressed indirectly rather than transparently • Decision-making is slowed by multiple layers of management, many of whom appear focused more on managing upward than enabling teams and execution • Long-tenured management structures can create limited accountability, discourage new ideas, and make modernization difficult • Some leadership styles feel hierarchical and dismissive of dissenting viewpoints, making it risky to challenge the status quo • Strategic thinking and decision authority are concentrated among a relatively small group of senior leaders, creating bottlenecks and limiting innovation • Office environments and ways of working often feel outdated compared to more modern organizations • Organizational responsiveness can be frustratingly low. Routine requests, decisions, and communications often require multiple follow-ups, creating unnecessary delays and reducing accountability • Promotions and performance assessments often lack transparency, leading employees to question whether advancement is based on impact, visibility, DEI, or internal relationships • Employees navigating significant career or life transitions may experience varying levels of support, visibility, and development opportunities, making career continuity and progression feel less predictable than they should be
