Pros

Products are innovative...but this innovation does not occur at Abbott..

Cons

Specifically ADC in Alameda...the coldest and most unwelcoming place I've ever had the displeasure of working at. All of the negative reviews here are accurate; expected to be on calls from 6 AM to 6 PM, zero transparency and extremely political. The way this company treats its employees is shameful. Forcing everyone to come back to the office with no explanation during the peak of Covid and literally only providing water and coffee to employees. This place is just a bunch of people who can't leave because of their pensions. No young talent and no encouragement to improve across departments. My life is so much better now that I'm not here.
