Thermo is OK if you are a scientist.

Pros

It can be a great place if you are a scientist or interested in the technology or specifics of the Life Sciences industry. Less so if you are not.

Cons

Starting salaries are competitive, but annual raises are 2% across the board, so over time, your pay does not even come close to keeping pace with inflation. Everything is based on quarterly results, with little interest in long-term vision.
