Pros
Pay and benefits align with expectations for large Healthcare company. Bonus structure is good, although not transparent. Retirement benefits are good, including 401k, pension, and healthcare. Abbott supports employees with expense items (computers, IT support, etc.) they need to do their jobs.
Cons
Abbott is definitely a corporate bully. If you don't agree with celebrating Affinity Groups (LGBTQ, Women Engineers, Black Business Network, etc) If you see these groups as divisive and harmful, keep your mouth shut or you will be black-balled. Covid specific bullying: they require covid testing and reporting on a weekly basis without regard to healthcare privacy. They are requiring people return to office during recent covid surge, regardless of remote work efficiencies and any concern for health. Again, don't ask questions or disagree without being black-balled. Executive team is still an "Old-Boys-Club". We'll see if Ford will change our perpetuate the club.
