      An awful work environment with extraordinary bureaucracy - Asset Strategy Leader AbbVie Employee Review

      Pros

      Coming from AGN, didn’t get to see the real ABBV benefits package, but apparently they are above average. Pay well.

      Cons

      Awful disempowering bureaucracy; overly engineered processes result in waste of time and energy, too many layers of managers who just want to hear themselves speak at meetings and create more work for teams, ton of politics, complete lack of a work / life balance, no care for those not based at headquarters in Chicago. If you live near HQ and don't want to move, it could be fine for you. If anywhere else, forget this place.

      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!
