Locations and presence
Thermo Fisher Scientific has a worldwide footprint with major US hubs and a large network of manufacturing and operational sites across Europe and Asia-Pacific. Work setup varies heavily by role, with a mix of on-site manufacturing roles, hybrid corporate roles, and some remote roles depending on function and country.
Thermo Fisher Scientific offers many early-career entry points, including internships, co-ops, and rotational development programs across multiple functions and geographies. Learning support is a clear strength thanks to structured rotations, formal mentorship references, and internal learning platforms, while hiring consistency and feedback expectations are less uniform across such a large organisation. Pay transparency and outcomes are solid in many markets, but not consistently easy to compare across all teams and countries.
