    works at 

    AbbVie

    It’s been 6 months since I joined Abbvie and I received a joining bonus of 10k (~8k after tax deductions). Now I plan to switch to other firm and I need to return joining bonus. So will I be liable to pay the actual amount 10k or the amount after tax deductions ~8k to AbbVie ?

      Pros

      The staff here are amazing and very helpful when starting. New processes taken in help a lot here. Management are very approachable. Staff knowledge is great here and welcome any questions to assist various roles. QA are very helpful and very knowledgeable. QA also are approachable with any questions.

      Cons

      For me HR was the downside here. They act in a very robotic manner with no human compassion in any way. Any issues that you bring are not taken on board. Their interaction is very poor here. For management in general it is great. However there needs to be more supervisors and reviewers on site. Supervisors are slammed here and need help to do there roles better. These do their very best but can do with more staff to assist. QA also needs to have more personnel to help with there roles.
