Submit a Review"Enjoy doing the science but not being recognized, respected and paid accordingly."
"I love to be in a research and development field, but I want to go further in production or any other area that give me a good knowledge about latest technology and science and make myself more brighter for my and society growth."
"That it has given me the opportunity to contribute to human knowledge and to explore and unravel some of the mystifying secrets of Mother Nature!"
"I love the freedom to try out new ideas and get my hands dirty in the lab. No matter how harebrained an idea is, I get to try it, and it just might work. The worst part of being a scientist is when the experiments don't work or fail completely, causing you to go back to square one. The good part is, something like that will give you a new perspective."
"Love - I am allowed to take decisions.Hate - No growth."
"This is a company full of changes. As scientist, I love the opportunities but also hate the instability."

"I enjoyed the professional environment and the close interactions with the project team members at Elan."

"Generally just not a nice place to work for ambitious engineers and scientists."
What do you like about working at Abbott Medical Optics ?
"I had the opportunity right out of school to work at a company in the Netherlands. Medical optics sounded like a dream come true, and together with all those website and fliers that made Holland look second to none, what else can a young ambitious scientist ask for!"
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"If you are top engineer or scientist, don't take job offers here seriously. Highly skilled individuals may be highly valued at Abbott, but AMO Groningen BV is entirely a different story."
What don't you like about working at Abbott Medical Optics ?
"The biggest disappointment I had was subtle racism from all the Dutch colleagues. As an Asian American, I would always be mixed up with the 1 Chinese guy at the company even after a year of employment. I would receive comments like you guys eat dogs. When visitors come, I got introduced as new talent from China. Chinese gibberish would get directed at me (Dutch equivalent of things like Ching chong). Although I have no proof that my Asian heritage put me at a disadvantage in decision making, competency assessment, resource allocation, and a voice in meetings, I really got the feeling that it did."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Management relentlessly preaches how they are a small company with an international vision, but the fact was that they are not prepared for an international work force. Expats experience certain difficulties that international companies address. The help the get should not feel like a constant cry for special treatment. Recognize that professionals from overseas do not have the support and safety net that the locals, and even Europeans from outside of the Netherlands, have. Discourage inappropriate, potentially racist, remarks from local employees by demotion or monetary fines should be implemented."
