"Stay away from this company. Thermo or Agilent have much better work environment. The pay is poor, the upper management team are a bunch of megalomaniacs. My budget for training on others manufactures equipment was $0 (stay away from OneSource program) 95% of my engineers are bumbling idiots. Basic parts are never in stock and must be imported from PE's foreign facilities."
