Lack of Human Dignity Respect By Local General Manager
Senior Sales Representative, Virology Franchise (Former Employee), San Juan, PR –
Pros: good product, literature, speakers program, medical support
Cons: lack of manager sales rep role, lack of rapport understanding, lack of market environtment
After completing 3 years of successfull sales for Virology franchise,
(Kaletra),# 1 PI,in Puerto Rico market,over U.S.market.I was called
under a false argument to attend for a sales meeting review at San Juan(Zipperle Rest.),T he purpose was to remove me from my job,
leaving me with no transportation,no mobile phone,etc.etc.Same day
and under same – more...  circumstances other sales persons were removed.
I think that under the american jurisdiction,that's an improper manner
to treat any HUMAN .That's his managerial style.
Mistakes are paid with money or blood.
As part of this review find out what happened with Kaletra's sales.
They are gone................Our physicians don't live with Injustice.......... – less

steady work schedule and benefits
Senior Manufacturing Operator (Current Employee), Temecula, CA –
Pros: hours, benefits
Cons: job security
Starting work early in the morning. Continuous working environment. Learning new procedures , processes, time management, and new programs. Management is understanding to your needs. People build product as intended for their family. The hard part about the job is long hours and constant work environment.

Abbott is a awesome place to work
Maintenance Tech II (Former Employee), Rocky Mount, NC –
I loved working there. It was my first pharma job in maintenance and I loved it. It was Abbott the first 2 years i worked there and then they switched names. The reason I left the new company is because they were discussing cut backs and me and my wife worked there and it did not seem good to have both checks coming from the same place at that time

No work life balance. Advancement due to favoritism.

Pros: good salary.
Cons: poor management at the local level
Mediocre review. This company does not reward talent based on hard work and good numbers. It rather promotes the favorite rep.
