Pros

Great PTO with Christmas to New Year's off. Great flexibility - telecommute available. Great people - everyone is friendly and helpful. Important work - we're saving lives.

Cons

Since the IPO earlier this year things have definitely been steadily getting worse. There is more and more focus on churning out better numbers rather than quality work. Increasing focus on meeting numbers and utilization rates are making us spend a lot more time on administrative tasks rather than doing great work.

Pros

Excellent PTO and holiday pay (extra week from Christmas to New Year in addition to regular PTO). Friendly people. Flexible scheduling, availablity to work from home when needed. Good for newcomers looking to enter CRO industry.

Cons

Low salary compared to rest of industry. Promotes a culture of blame instead of a culture of problem-solving. Over promise and under deliver to customers, which creates a lot of stress on project teams. Lack of follow through on promotions and raises No bonus or incentives; recognition programs in place are childish and provide no actual incentive. Lack of resourcing, most departments are understaffed and employees are expected to "pick up the slack" for an indefinite period of time, which doesn't seem to be ending. Like most companies, promotion and recognition is political - those that get the most face time with upper management get promotions while those that stick their nose to the grindstone and actually complete the work are awarded with more work.
