Pros

You can work remote in some roles.

Cons

Thermo Fisher has brought this company back to the 80’s. $840 a MONTH for family health coverage JUST medical. Layoffs everywhere of staff with years of institutional knowledge in a toxic culture that just cares about the bottom line. This is not PPD from ten years ago. This is a money making machine with zero regard for you or your work life balance. The senior leaders are all jumping ship for a reason. Every process here is like a hundred steps and everyone needs to approve it’s very inefficient. No data is shared with leaders including pay I cannot see any of that information anymore. Pay for performance is the mantra so you have to take away from a successful employee to give more money to a highly successful employee. It’s just awful people are miserable and feel like cogs in a machine. It’s a shame it’s not the PPD I once knew and with sales not being met I’m guessing it will continue to get worse. Lack of resources when you reach out to HR it’s all a ticketing system with either no response or a response that doesn’t match your question. I could go on and on just do yourself a favor and look elsewhere sadly this isn’t a great place to work anymore.
