Productive
I think it was a pretty calm environment when I was not working on projects. However the working hours may be long as you need to stay back to handle some projects after working hours.
Pros
Free food in pantry
Cons
Long hours

Complicated Environment
Engineer (Former Employee) - Singapore - December 5, 2021
Complicated environment, from lack of integration and standardization, sometimes can have 'messy' issues. There is alot of politics and you have to know how to navigate through it. Lack of learning culture, local culture very strong, fall in line and do not ever offend people. Lots of silo working and there isnt a cohesive culture or company identity. Some are in retirement mode.
Pros
Pantry with drinks, Quarterly Bonus
Cons
Complicated organizational structure, dirty and small toilets

Friendly colleagues everywhere, fun and enjoyable environment
Manufacturing Technician (Current Employee) - Singapore - March 11, 2021
It was not hard at all to get used to the environment there, all my colleagues were very welcoming, therefore i had no issues befriending them, which made asking them any work related questions very easy. Being in this job made me learn a variety of things and different stations. I had the opportunity to be in charge of a work station, which i am very thankful for the opportunity. overall, i am thankful to have colleagues who are very friendly and easy to approach.
Pros
free snack every week, free lunch every month

Pay is not satisfying enough

Jobs at Thermo Fisher Scientific
Great Work Culture!
Account Manager (Current Employee) - Marsiling - February 11, 2021
Being in the sales function, I would highly recommend the work ethics of Thermo Fisher. You are rewarded for your work and I have experience little to no encounters with micromanaging from my managers. Not so sure about career advancement yet but it's a great place to work!
Pros
Good package, work culture
Cons
Potential higher management issues

Avoid this place
Project Manager (Current Employee) - Singapore - September 16, 2020
Terrible place with terrible culture. The management are more like puppets trying to keep their bosses happy. There is minimal employee welfare, and high level of politics and nepotism. You get special treatment if you are the bosses friend. There's no real project management done by project managers, they do admin work.
Pros
Easy job but nothing much aside from that
Cons
Poor career advancement, terrible politics
