    Pros

    Very committed to growing me as an employee. I have received a lot of training that has made me fairly marketable for other jobs.

    Cons

    In almost 4 years i have not received any pay increase and the prospects of becoming an employee are not great. Even if you pursue becoming an employee it is not a clearly defined path. There aren't any quantifiable things you can do to help the process of becoming hired. You just have to sit and wait. I could easily leave and make double my salary somewhere else, but their commitment to my training as a worker has kept me around.

    FDA should audit the Global Metrology Group.

    Pros

    My review is solely based on the Global Metrology Group. I think AbbVie outside of that Group is probably great. The benefits are amazing. Unfortunately new hires no longer get enrolled in the pension. The culture is very diverse friendly, and they treat their workers with the utmost respect. I used to be proud seeing our commercials come on TV. Made me proud!

    Cons

    Over the 3 years I was with the company I witnessed numerous violations against AbbVie's' policies and FDA regulations. I constantly tried to change what was going on but Global Metrology Management didn't care. Violations Summary: (Elements of each as they relate to the Metrology program at AbbVie) Pharmaceuticals 21 CFR 211 Biologics 21 CFR 606 Medical Devices 21 CFR 820 Human Tissues 21 CFR 1271 Advice to potential Metrology candidate: The Global Metrology Group is highly resistive to change due to legacy Abbott employees and weak Management. If your work ethic is to follow Metrological standard's and be an agent for change, this place is not for you. I tried for 3 years and 10 months. I didn't leave because I was shown the door I left of my own volition.
