The company on the whole is fine. The Worcester site is not that great. - Anonymous employee AbbVie Employee Review

Pros

Decent salary and bonuses. Vacation time accrual is great!

Cons

Bad management at the site levels. Too many chiefs (or wanna be chiefs). At the Worcester site, there is waaaay too much politics involved in the promotion process. It seems that technicians or analysts who are promoted to supervisor based on there expertise (which is fine) and if management likes them. What makes that even worse is there is no real training given to new supervisors to help them with the main piece of being a supervisor--- DEALING WITH PEOPLE. The only thing they're told when becoming a supervisor is don't hang out with the people who now report to you if you were friends before.

Pros

Pay and benefits are excellent

Cons

When I was hired by AbbVie I sold my home and relocated to comply with their mandatory office days. A week after I sold my home they did a reorganization of my department. My hiring manager was forced to retire, my mentor was moved to another team and the work stopped coming in. I was laid off shortly after. I’m now experiencing housing instability. Thanks AbbVie!
