Good
I was responsible for all the product testing and keeping the necessary records. I learned a lot about Quality Management,also Health and Safety was of major importance as part of a Healthcare Company. I got on very well with my co-workers I was always a very good team player. There was a lot of pressure due to to the fact that there was a high volume of product been manufactured.
ProsManagement treated the employees very well
ConsI worked evening shift and it was late at night when I got home

Fun place to work in if you have masochistic tendencies.
If you are unemployed and are desperate for a job I would seriously ask you to think about working for this company. It is a large building , built with structural steel and glass, and it is within this building that the work is done. I learned that manners and common courtesy are foreign concepts amoung Irish people, and I learned that amoung factory workers there are a remarkable number of gosfords.The hardest part of the job was listening to the inane conversations about football or the filthy talk about s.. during eight hour shifts. Management were a total bunch of ticks, the most enjoyable memory of the job for me was the night a water pipe burst in the ceiling above the clean room and we all had to be sent home.
ProsGood Car Park.
ConsMonday thru Friday.

Colleagues always willing to help if necessary.
A typical day at work began between 8am and 10am (flexi-time). Coffee and water were available to drink as required. There is a subsidised canteen. I enhanced my knowledge in ISO13485, Validation and QA. Management treated me as a person. Excellent work culture. The most enjoyable part of the job was problem solving. I liked working for Abbott due to it's openness and good work / life balance. If any difficulties arose there was always someone there to help.
