Pros

Abbvie is a great company. Benefits are the best and compensation is competitive.

Cons

My only cons apply to the QC Microbiology group. Management is rude beyond belief. Employees in the group are intimidated by management so they don't speak up about mistreatment (someone should report them to the Department of labor). Vacation time must be requested 1 year in advance! It is hard to change the culture of the group, management only blames employees for anything that goes wrong, nobody really talks to anyone, everyone sits in their cube to eat lunch, nobody in the group goes to company activities. I was extremely sad to leave such a great company but being in that toxic group was awful. After I couldn't take it anymore I was lucky to find a different job and never looked back!

Pros

I learned a lot while working this job. The systems like Veeva and Workfront were difficult to learn at first, but once I got the hang of them it was great. There were a lot of great people working around me that wanted to see me succeed.

Cons

Working as a contract worker had it's cons. At times, it felt like I was a little bit of an afterthought in the company with some superiors because I was not a full time employee. Communication suffered at times as well.
