Pros

Thermo does a good job of promoting career development and growth. You will be offered many opportunities for enhancing your career skills. Some benefits are nice (401k).

Cons

Thermo likes to grow through acquisitions, but does not do a thorough job of integrating the many business units. They are willing to throw around a lot of money for an acquisition, but conservative with money for salaries and R&D.

Pros

Many opportunities to take on new responsibilities; and if you perform well you will be recognized for your efforts. 50% or more of all promotions are filled internally.

Cons

Hard work -- long hours -- and we run a fairly lean organization with a minimal number of staff. You'll work hard, but there are rewards to be had.

Pros

The pros for working for Thermo Fisher Scientific is that if you want to be a part of a company that is in the midst of change and you enjoy putting processes together, this is the place for you.

Cons

There is a lack of appriciation for the women within the organization, especially within the management ranks. There should be more emphasis on the development of women through formal mentoring and coaching programs. This diversity is vital to the balance and advancement of the organization.
