HR Monitor:: Graffiti is juvenile. The trolls must STOP disrespecting the Company. Again, please stop this idiotic practice of posting BS about your great Company. Please - only uplifting and pro-management posts are appropriate and remember - job applicants regularly cruise this site and HR does not have the resources to decode the graffiti you post.

Starting very soon, technicians will be forced into different roles. The reason being, following the recent line shutdowns and operator lay-offs, there are too many techs. On the other hand, Abbott has a massive shortage of engineering/project based staff due to the excessively high attrition rate over the years.

So the techs will be made to take these horrible jobs, usually meaning an immediate loss of shift rate (at least 20%), put on salary where they will be expected to work at least 50 hour weeks, not get paid overtime, be forced to complete endless project after project before possibly getting sick of it and quitting. Just like so many engineers before them.

The sickening thing is that Abbott HOPES for them to quit so they will a) not need to pay any severance package and b) avoid bad publicity in the media.

Disgusting company that has gone downhill MASSIVELY in the last few years, coinciding with Mr C's arrival in the mid 2000's. During the boom years when staff was scarce, this place couldn't do enough for you. Now that the country's doomed, Abbott is capatalising on this and trying to force people out the door without needing to pay them off.

It says a lot when the only new engineers hired in the last 3 or 4 years have been grads straight out of college with no experience. Nobody internally or external people with experience will touch the place. And even then, the college grads are only staying for a year or two to gain experience before leaving. I assume they leave to go work for a company that respects people. In fact, I think the longest serving DES engineer is there about 2 years and in a large department that's been in service over 10 years, that's shocking.

Make NO mistake, their propaganda aside, Abbott Clonmel is there to pump out numbers first and foremost. Quality is secondary.

I hope for redundancy but honestly believe it will never happen for non-production staff and people will just continually leave with nothing, but broken and dis-spirited, much to the delight of the elite in-human robots at the top of the chain. RIP Abbott.

ps. everything mentioned above that people setting fire to toilets, sh!tting in urinals and leaving sh!t on the cleanroom floor, is actual true. You have to ask yourself what kind of company drives their employees to such strange lengths?

Hey all how's life in Abbott?. Hard to believe 2 years gone since my freedom papers we're signed. What's this I am hearing about someone using spurious material to build product. Anyone hear about this?, sounds like something TF or TM would try?.
Tip of the day, if u can't hit your numbers on the lasers you can stop them by just tipping off the program switch on the right hand side. Be careful not to change it though, just a little nudge. This will stop your laser without it going back to home position. If anyone needs a demo I know the guys on line 1 used to put 140+ an hour through distal with this trick.

well I am over 50 years of age and Im with Abbott over 10 years. Its not that bad I have worked in worse places but if im honest I don't give a dam about numbers, incentive, patients any of that crap. They pay me from the neck down so my opinion does not matter anyway so I really don't give a crap which is exactly how most people feel but its not about feelings. The best job I ever had was shovelling shite because we could have a yarn with the lads sure the guys im working beside now all speak polish haven't a clue what they on about. So I tend to keep the head down collect me wages every two weeks and wonder how in the name of god did I end up working in that god forsaken place. Im to old now I guess might aswell wait for death with a bit of dignity. Management need to stop feeding people crap and treat people with respect most people would bend over backwards and more people wont because they feel aggrieved. As our lord thought us treat others like you like to be treated. Then and only then will abbott clonmel be a good place to work and I cant see that happening anytime in the next 5 years which makes me think they want to force people to leave.

The sooner Abbott make the decision to move Des to China and implants and core products to Costa Rica the better. It has to be said I complained to a local TD about the soul draining boring work and he told me the town needs the place but I say fill it up with refugees and relieve the Irish from this bull.
 






I have a serious question . Why do we not have a union? Surely a union would unite workers in the common good instead of letting Abbott ride us bare back surly we are stronger United.
