Pros

I loved the people I worked with. The global marketing team and the stakeholders across the business were all invested in each other's success and willing to collaborate for mutual benefit.

Cons

Lack of leadership / vision. Since PerkinElmer's separation from Revvity the executive team's vision and roadmap haven't felt clear to the whole organization. There's been a lot of turbulence in the change and a lot of the good people have left or been driven out of the organization.

Pros

Pay is fine. Coworker is good.

Cons

Management is terrible. They consistently disregard all positive suggestions from first-line employees. However, they terminate employees for the problem when we already recommend changes to the problem.
