Current Employee – been working at AbbVie full-time
Pros – Nice benefit, and many opportunities (if you are at Abbott Park and have good connections)
Cons – Still very old management thinking from the Abbott days, spent lots of time to align, discuss, and discuss but slow in finalizing. I agree with someone saying many great scientists in the senior management role but not sure they are great in operations and execution.
Advice to Senior Management – Advance those who are business savvy and not just talking and always planning only. Think broader. Open minded to receiving ideas (not just talk about it, but practice this behavior). Let busines operational savvy people run the operation and let science guru handles the science.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Current Employee – been working at AbbVie full-time for more than 7 years
Pros – Great benefits
Pays well for the work which is done
Cons – Only one product and all focus is on improving that, for the next 3 years, at the expense of any other product.
The management is clueless. Goals change every few months.
Near-impossible to move around.
Advice to Senior Management – Cut out the middle management.
Act like a 'nimble' biotech now, instead of the lumbering bureaucratic company in the past.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
