      Pros

      Positive work environment with capable support mechanisms in place to ensure success. HR and items required for personal needs are easily obtainable.

      Cons

      As with most Field Service roles the independent nature of the job leaves one exposed at times yet management is aware and works to ensure that there is a path to address issues when needed.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      PerkinElmer is big in the instrumentation/scientific business and known for making the mirror for hubble telescope that cost billions of taxpayer dollars. They recently bought CambridgeSoft to get into informatics business for lifescience.

      Cons

      Check linkedin profiles, Services, product development are headed by people with no industry, technical or domain knowledge or experience. And poor work culture/ethics, Recent exit of a number of Asians from informatics management to Merck, Pfizer due to poorly thought comments from senior staff.
