Pros

Good Compensation Structure. Short and long term benefits.

Cons

-Abbvie 'culture' -"We have employees safety first and foremost" could not be more false and hypocritical. The emphasis and importance placed on being in the office for roles that do not require, in any fashion, to be physically present is truly remarkable, disturbing, and really just sad. -In the typical Abbvie elitist mindset, the leaders believe we are above the pandemic and can simply ignore it. It is clear now they believe not being in the office is hurting business (despite evidence to the contrary) and that forcing knowledge employees to go back to normal office culture will solve sales problems that have nothing to do with being face-to-face in a conference room and everything to do with external factors such as.... you guessed it... the PANDEMIC happening! -VP and above self-perception of immortal omnipotent beings yet all are afraid to voice a dissenting opinion to anyone above them. This is a Yes-man/woman environment. -Profits over all else mentality despite an above-average attempt to mask it with patient-centric propaganda machine firing on all cylinders internally and externally. I can't stress this point enough. COVID has clearly revealed Abbvie does not care about anything besides profits with respect to employees and patients.

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.
