Abbott Labs – “Abbott...a great place to get experience to take elsewhere and get paid what you should have been already.”

The best reasons include: a solid product, namely Humira, and great site in NJ, which they are closing
Cons
There is no opportunity for advancement unless you reside in IL. You must also have no opposition to kissing ass. It's the place to work if you really aren't fully competent at your job, but know how to schmooze the right people.
Advice to Senior Management
Honestly, the Sr. Management at Abbott needs to snap into reality and value the employees who actually deserve it. I've seen way too much of promoting people who don't deserve it, and some really bad business decisions. It also wouldn't hurt if they grew their own pipeline using the many scientists they have and stopped relying solely on buying smaller companies with successful compounds to survive.
