Pros

PerkinElmer got to keep the name. But the technology went with Sciex. The technology is super old and cannot compete. Sorry, putting old technology in a new box doesn't cut it.

Cons

PE keeps playing games to boost its numbers like selling its site in Turku and renting it back to show a "profit".

Pros

Used to be a wonderful place to work before being bought out.

Cons

There is no feeling of teamwork anymore. Management could be quite nasty and favoritism ran high. New manager seemed to like running things like it was a third world country.
