You may not be aware of this but our entire management staff has started in an entry-level position and have worked their way up within the company. For example, I have worked in our routing dept. shipping dept, warehouse, delivery driver, and customer service. Our management is very diverse in experience and are fully aware of what your job entails. We are not sure how someone from the outside would manage a staff of a job they have never done.

Pros

If you don’t have a degree and you are good at sales you can make ok money.

Cons

Since the owner Bob Abt died and his 4 kids took over the place has just gone down hill. They do not agree with each other and let managers who don’t know what they are doing run the place. Total bs if you are not tight with one of them and if you are a female sales person just forget it.

Over the last 85 years, our owners and staff are extremely proud of what we have accomplished together. We believe the knowledge our management team and Mr. Abt's sons acquired over the years working with him set us up to continue our success for another 85 years and beyond. Sorry you were unable to find a mutual fit with us and needed to use Mr. Abt's passing in your post. We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors.

Pros

Great job out of high school

Cons

I screamed in my car before work every morning just to get it out. As a low tier employee, my voice was never heard. Attempts to transfer out of your department can spell disaster for you if you’re not on your manager’s good side. Had maybe two or three conversations with my manager in the two years that I worked here. Took a year and a half to receive the extra training I wanted in my department and even then I wasn’t even certified in the machines I drove. Prepare to work 13 days in a row at least twice a year, while the extra money is great, management did not do much to address the several burnt out employees doing the physical labor. Rumor after rumor circulates within the walls of abt, some harmless, and others seemed to tear down some people’s careers, if you decide to work here then keep a low profile or you may be next.
