What our employees say

Let's change lives! This motto could certainly be related to my personal career at AbbVie. But: 'Lets change lives' refers less to me and more to our patients who depend on the best possible therapies. This is probably the true essence of the message, we want to use the added value of our therapies, but also the further development of new therapies and innovative approaches and strategies to make a positive difference to patients' lives. This is what keeps driving me to stand up for AbbVie and continue on this innovative path. At AbbVie, I enjoy working with several highly motivated teams and carrying this motto in my heart.

Why work at AbbVie Switzerland

AbbVie is a Great Place to Work because........

AbbVie combines the experience of 125 years of research and development in the pharmaceutical industry with the dynamism and spirit of a start-up, which we retain even after ten years.

Furthermore, employees in Switzerland can be offered the framework conditions and development opportunities of a major global corporation. At the same time, the approximately 275 employees create a family environment in which people know and appreciate each other. All this in the spirit of "think global, act local".

The "Employees come first" approach is about the targeted further development of employees in step with the development of AbbVie itself. This enables homogeneous further development and thus significantly strengthens the qualifications of each employee.
