Pros

location, good people to work with (non manager type), good general benefits but low pay though. good place to work for working mother, especially if you know how to work the system. on site day care, on site banking,

Cons

Abbott likes to low ball people on salary, especially when they know you have limited choices. General HR mentality is to hire 10 cheap labor rather than hiring one quality labor. HR is lousy. big recognitions always given to the senior managers, but the poor guy who worked 60 hours week to complete the project didn't get squad. cafeteria is lousy, half-ass ethnic food, high price.
