Absoutely horrible company - Anonymous employee PerkinElmer Employee Review

This is an absolutely horrible company to work for - at least in the Informatics division. Division was cobbled together by acquisitions, and now they appear to be divesting themselves of at least two of those. No innovation, software is extremely dated. Senior management is clueless; clear racial biases in hiring (lots of Indians, some qualified, some not - hired by senior manager who is Indian). Constant reorgs, lack of strategic vision, just a complete mess. Company likes to pinch pennies as well. Health benefits are horrible for a company of this size and the stock purchase program isn't worth it. Constant turnover, most of the good people are gone.
