Intern Reviews
- “At Abbott, the culture fosters a welcoming environment where colleagues readily offer assistance and support. My team encourages exploration and networking across various departments. I typically maintain a 40-hour workweek, and my team is accommodating of remote work when needed.”
- “Our housing is less than 10 minutes from the site, and my manager is adamant that I don’t work much overtime. Everyone around the office is easy to talk to and happy to share about their work or other involvements. The site also has a Social Crew that plans major events for the site throughout the year (like a rodeo we had on a Friday in my second week!), and some of the teams will use the onsite pickleball or volleyball courts at the end of a workday. Plenty of them have also made recommendations for things to do in the area.”
- “The work environment has been incredible at the site I am at. Everyone has been extremely helpful and supportive in helping me grow. I am not afraid to ask questions at my site. I work the standard 40 hours per week, and my manager has been very supportive of a healthy work/life balance.”
- “Interns work normal 40-hour work weeks. My manager (and most others from asking around) is flexible with intern work schedules and the ability to take days off or work remotely when needed. The culture at my site is excellent. I have seen multiple site bonding events and intern welcome/social events in my short time here. Additionally, the people I interact with are generally kind to interns.”
