Try to improve process and aim for quality of products
The leadership teams focus is on developing team members and setup for future success.
Review from Operations Dept
They are approachable and welcome new ideas and suggestions. They create an environment where people feel empowered to share their thoughts. They recognize and value achievers.
Review from Business Development Dept
Transparency, support, care, honest, good leadership
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Actually putting people/employees first and building a robust talent strategy and development plan
Communication. To actually listen to their employees suggestions and fix broken equipment. Managements focus is on small things rather than the real issues in the lab with an over fixation on production numbers.
Listen more stop all the micro management and not allowing executive leadership team understand what is truly going on in the business
They need to be more experienced and less self serving
The leadership team is here to guide and develop the company, not dictate orders from on high. Innovation doesn't come from the top down, but from collaboration.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
My wage payment satisfied me
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 10 days ago
The benefits package here at Abbott is a top tier program and yet they continue to push programs that are above and beyond any other industry in the market.
Review from Operations Dept
Salary, benefits and stock options.
Review from Business Development Dept
Every year increment percentage based on your KPI achievement result
Flexible benefits, medical, staff discount, transport allowance are good.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Because getting less salary and no stock options
Higher compensation and meaningful work
Abbott is very conservative when it comes to compensation. For a Director role, they want someone who is currently a Sr. Director. From a compensation standpoint, they're under market.
Flexibility. Bonuses beyond management level.
They paid more to keep experts instead of paying more for executives with limited contribution
What are some of the best things about your team?
Inclusion, Consideration, Support, Teamwork, Knowledge

Some good people to work
Our roles, personalities, and psychologies all align but are diverse enough that we all have our understood role in the team. this allows us to always push and develop each other inside the team the dynamic.
Review from Operations Dept
ON TIME- HARD WORKER - HAVE A LOYALTY TO WORK
Review from Communications Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
The director of the team is responsible for the morale and retention of the staff
Be more collaborative and help each other
work quality, time management and problem resolution
Everyday I feel like I'm going into a fight to convince people to do their best work rather than doing the bare minimum to keep the lights on. There is a lack of purpose or single unifying goal to bring people together.
Actually work. A lot of people dont do the work.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Compliment, Helpful, Considerate, Compassionate, Peaceful
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 10 days ago
Not much corporate culture and environment
they say what the mean, and mean what they say. They have embraced the core values of the organization and act on them day in and day out.
Review from Operations Dept
A friendly environment where I can express myself freely.
Review from Business Development Dept
Great team and company to work, excellent product range and market reputation
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Co-locate teams and reduce the the amount of meetings.
Better and more educated leadership
company culture needs to change
Have more flexibility when it comes to hybrid work. It's essentially non-existent.
Listen to employees. Change the leadership in nutrition business. This is the worse leadership team
What did you like most about the interview process?
They notified me sooner about me getting the job (after 1day)
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 10 days ago
Clear overview of roles and responsibilities
I was interviewed by different people in different positions.
Review from Business Development Dept
Respectful and open conversation, opportunity to share your skills
Interview with overseas stakeholders and direct boss
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Everyone was unfriendly and it was strange and uncomfortable.
Give feedback whether hire / no hire
Review from Sales Dept
Ask the Leadership to engage in meaningful dialog, know what are the Company needs they must fulfill. Internal hires need to be evaluated on skill, not seniority within Abbott. Leadership should not promote bad behavior or toxic personnel to more senior positions.
Better interaction with hiring SPOC. Mine was very pushy, erratic, and also screamed at me at one point. He also blamed me for something that wasn't my fault - because he failed to keep the internal team informed. All this before even joining the company.
Review from Communications Dept

Appreciated, Considered, Supported, Trained, Understood.

Saving diabetic people lives for wuality life
Solving problems to root cause and creatively developing resolutions pushing the teams to future technologies, processes, and component designs.
Review from Operations Dept
doing assessment for malnourishment pateint
Review from Communications Dept
To achieve milestones that gets us closer to reaching and helping more people globally.
Review from Business Development Dept
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Poor leadership causing people to leave
Management can make moves to improve working conditions with functioning equipment and more respect toward their employees. The excellence awards program could be implamented more to build more incentive and community. If employees felt respected and appreciated, more would stay long term.
Hire people that follow the rules
Poorly designed product is being delivered to Customers. Customers experiences with current On Market releases are going to negatively impact future sales of Abbott products.
Aggressive management team that doesn't allow work-life balance.
Review from Operations Dept

Improve tech capabilities and upgrade systems
Review from Business Development Dept
Better coffee and perks during the day. Better offices.
Compensation, hiring practices- too many contractors
