      Pros

      - Nice people - Nice culture - Work from home opportunities2 days a week - Work can be interesting sometimes - Good pension

      Cons

      - Micromanagement - Advised they want quality over quantity then consistently push numbers of calls or live chats. - Some days feel like a glorified call centre as you are sitting waiting for calls or live chats all day. - They advised progression could be available for anyone with potential from day 1 however this has not occurred whilst being at the company. Everyone who started together are being progressed roughly at the same time and others who have been here longer are having progression stunted. Only maximum of 2 days at home per week when everyone has proven they can do the job just as well or better at home however management won't allow more than 2 days. - Pay is lower compared to others in same industry - Some brokers can be rude or pushy making for some stressful times

        Do you experience that how long the hiring process would take at Thermo Fisher? I got my second interview with hiring manager at the beginning of November but I haven’t heard nothing from them. When I’ve emailed them to check in they just said that the process would be slow, no time frame. I would be able to get an offer soon from other company but work as contractor. Should I wait for Thermo Fisher?

        Booz Allen Hamilton Recently applied and I've been referred for an interview! Any tips on interviewing with Booz Allen? And if I am being asked to complete clearance and background upfront, is this a good indicator for being hired?

        Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
