Pros

Modern labs with plenty of company events and opportunities for collaboration across departments at the Abingdon site.

Cons

Career progression in the Development department feels very limited if you are not one of the chosen few. People are often blamed for their mistakes rather than rewarded for their hard work (which often goes unrecognised), whilst others receive credit for minimal contribution. Staff are often not listened to by senior members of the team, many of whom lack enthusiasm for their role. Most of the lab work is also focused on a single assay so the work can feel repetitive at times, with no clear sense of future company direction.

Pros

Revvity offers numerous opportunities for career growth, as well as personal and professional development. The company encourages collaboration across sites, making it easier to build relationships with colleagues and gain exposure to different teams and areas of expertise. One of the standout benefits is the mentorship program, which provides employees with valuable guidance, career development support, and opportunities to learn from experienced professionals. Whether you're looking to explore new career paths, expand your skill set, or grow within the organization, there are resources available to help you succeed. The company also fosters a culture of continuous learning and encourages employees to take on new challenges, develop technical expertise, and broaden their professional networks.

Cons

Communication between sites and cross-functional teams can be inconsistent, which sometimes leads to delays in decision-making and project execution. Priorities can shift frequently, making it challenging to plan long-term and maintain focus on key objectives. Workloads can be demanding, particularly during busy periods, and employees are often expected to manage multiple competing priorities simultaneously. While the company offers strong professional development resources, career progression and compensation growth are not always clearly defined, making it difficult for employees to understand what is needed to advance. Improving communication, organizational alignment, and transparency around promotions and compensation would significantly enhance the employee experience.
