Abbott Vascular Clonmel

No, that is not correct. Well, sort of. Depends on how you look at it. ADC is as you know getting read to lay off the rest of the sales force. But since we are the most elite sales team within ABT, we are really going to be reassigned to Vascular. We are too valuable an asset to loose. So that means many of you have to be let go. Sorry, but its for the good of the company. We have the skills to save Vascular, like we did at ADC. Our VP will lead the charge, and is coming your way too. He has been telling us we are the best of the best, and he will take us to Vascular. He is going to work magic like he did at ADC and transform Vascular too. We've known this for some time.

Look at the bright side, those who get chosen to stay will be able to learn from us, and we will teach you to be better at what you do. You will be joining a winning team! And if you work hard, make the changes necessary, respond positively to the PIP's we will put you on, you can have a place with us at Vascular. As long as you can accept being second tier, and above all else will be absolutely loyal and dedicated to Duncan.

Now I know why you still have a job. You "kiss" your boss behind very well

There's nothing new in the innovation pipeline for AV and there hasn't been, since Abbott bought Guidant. There's nothing to sell, Genius...

Don't worry, we'll fix all of that for you! But the most important thing is your attitude and willingness to change. Don't be a Negative Nellie! At ADC, we are always positive, about everything! That's the key to winning. Go read our threads and see how special and exceptional we are. Now, don't let that get you down by thinking "I can never be that good". We will try our best to help you change and grow.

At ADC, we just call it the "power of positive thinking". Don't worry about hitting the ball, where the ball might go, or the score of the game. BE THE BALL! That's it! Why, at ADC, if we looked at the numbers, we'd all be like you. Instead, we all quote ABT share prices, or the headline from a recent Abbott press release. BE THE BALL, and DON"T LOOK AT THE SCORE BOARD!

I doubt we wud be friends if we worked 2gether u r so out of touch with people its not even funny. Sorry man the best way 2 motivate people in clonmel is 2 offer us a severence package so we can get out of the hell hole that we are in. I would say the lack of promotion of people is terrible so people know that whatever they do in Clonmel the only opportunity people have in Abbott is 2 do they same repetitive stuff second after second, minute after minute, hour after hour, day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year and yes even decade after decade. This is a sad existence for any human being or any animal most of us will die of boredom. The only challenge I have come across in Clonmel was clocking in everyday. Even the pay is terrible for the amount of horse manure we have to listen 2. Prisoners are better treated than operators in Clonmel and that is not right I cannot speak for Engineers but I know that they also get underpaid which is why alot of the good ones leave. I look forward 2 d day I do not have 2 go n dere anymore but because of some stupid reason they think people like it there they are totally out of touch and the only reason why people stayed with them for so long was because the recession now that we are in recovery the job market is slow and with people been there at least 5 years it is difficult for people 2 go on minimum wage and 2 start fresh somewhere else so people need a severence to leave so they can have that security 4 putting up with everything 4 so long. in the words of Mel Gibson in the film Braveheart . THEY CAN TAKE OUR LIVES BUT THEY WILL NEVER TAKE OUR FREEDOM. I can honestly say that everyday I hope we get a bad recall so it wud crush dem so badly that I wud be left go that is my dream they go on and on about built has if intended for my family. I really do not care aslong as I GET MY WAGES. I have told my family not 2 accept an abbott stent and 2 take1 from a differnt company if a choice is availabe because I tell them what happens on d line.

Great post...sad but true. F**k Abbott Clonmel!
 


















Anyone heard rumors about layoffs early next year. Heard it from few guys last two weeks

d only people who will b laid off will b d contract people who we recently hired so yeah dey will be layoffs but no redundancies. In fairness tho I think those guys cud get another contract next year because we will have d transfer of absorb and vessel closure will be ramping up so I would say early 2016 d layoffs most likely but no redundancies especially after d bad publicity abbott got d last time from our incompetent government.
 






Also me, I come from Poland to work hard for family good life but I come home to my wife very angry from Abbott working. Every day is bully bully bully and threaten threaten threaten. Life was much better in ceramics factory in Warsawa.

Just get out the barbeque and cook some Johnsonville corn dogs that will solve the problem.

Transfer of absorb? They're transfering this piece of s**t for over 2 years now. Just face the truth, noone is buying this garbage, that's why the volume is as it is now. And vessel closure wont ramp up, why shoul it be? 200+ ppl are making it in redwood and the same will be here. Do you really think that now when they'll start makin it in clonmel sales will go up for 300-400% because it will be made here?
 






with regard vessel closure it will take time 2 build up 2 redwood city output and I do not know if sales will increase or decrease but one of the main reasons we got it is because they cannot keep up with demand, and with absorb once the fda approve it we will get it end of story d american government will pay big dollar for d best medical technology and you know it will be approved its already selling in europe and sales are positive so dont take it out on me that abbott are leading the way in the stent business and clonmel has shingo prize which means we are abbotts best site for bending over backwards and getting results.
