Vantaggi

Decent Perks with Financially strong performance.

Svantaggi

This company has tons of systemic inequality for people of color or the one who have an accent. The folks here play really dirty politics and environment is really hostile. This brings tons of challenges to someone new coming on board. I have had 2 decades of IT experience working on various global companies in the leadership role. I have had a very successful and rewarding career so far in terms of getting frequent recognition for the work pretty much from all my previous roles. At ABT things have been miserable for no fault of mine people are really conservative and want to do things in a very certain way. It makes you feel down about oneself and if you are colored person in the room there is already speculation about tour skillset and what you can do cause folks are very judgmental and if you have an accent it’s icing on the cake kind of situation. I have felt that on hundreds of occasion I was really shocked to be honest that this type of systemic inequality exists in this time and age with all that is going around. I was elated to learn about hiring of the new CIO last year who happened to be from minority community to see a hope of change but unfortunately she being so high up the ladder most likely don’t get to see or face such issues. HR is non existent on such matter as opposed to proactively work on these things by keeping managers in check. They publish tons of training video and content but all that is on paper in actuality people pretty much go around do all the above stuff. HR do needs to step up. I really do hope things bet better. My advice to management is about equality and remove folks who think otherwise cause that is causing more damage to as a company and halting our growth. It is more like a horse left on the course to run with eyes covered

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
