Pros
The content of the work is fantastic! Very interesting product line - one can develop lots of technical expertise if given the chance. If your manager is normal, people can do well. It's very tempting to join this organization given what you think your opportunities might be.
Kontras
Product line is complex and takes a while to master. Lots of reports of high turnover in the year prior to my arrival (ie. most of the clinical department) Management seems to be pathologically delusional. They harp endlessly how much work there is and how important each goal is to achieve, but maintain that the work force must stay lean. The result for me after 6 months was constant badgering that I wasn't doing enough independently nor enough projects simultaneously. I had no onboarding and had to create an onboarding checklist tool for management. But my lack of access to critical tools needed to do my job did not eliminate the criticism from management. There is no pleasing these people. They do not invest in cultivating new people in the organization; they waste Abbott resources through inefficient hiring and firing. People just disappear from this place.
