Im newish to Thermo Fisher Scientific but trying to understand the promotion cycle. It seems vertical career moves within Thermo are much more difficult than diagonal. When you are looking to move up a career band how often has that movement actually happened vertically in the team or group you work in?

Yes the promotions are little difficult in TFS. It will take 3-4 years for promotions. But there are IJPs and you can apply and move to ither divisions. But in your 1:1 you should keep asking your manager that you are expecting promotion so that they will know.

I was given CS my first year and told that my senior manager and the director wanted to promote me, but it was denied by the senior director due to short time in rank. Meanwhile people in adjacent departments get a promotion every year or two, so I guess it just depends who's making the decisions for your division. No one at the site here was promoted in the most recent cycle, but there have been a lot of layoffs.

Currently 6 years at job A at 100K and 10K annual bonus but lil to no upward mobility. It's safe if not going anywhere.

Recruiter reached out regarding Job B at 130K with greater advancement potential but it starts out at 6 Months Contract to Hire per the agency contract. No bonus, benefits adequate by comparison. There is no guarantee to go full time.
