If you hate thinking and love politicking, work for PPD! - Scientist PPD Employee Review

Pros

For anyone interested in a career in science: absolutely none.

Cons

Bottom line is personal profit generability, if you like being loosely associated with customer service and performing mundane, tedious and repetitive work, then PPD is the place for you. Overqualified analysts are constitutively underpaid and you have absolutely no value to the company. If you demand to be paid more (like a living wage..) it is more profitable for them to let you go and hire another naive, fresh-out-of college robot worker. If you are looking for a job for a gap year for grad school or med school, its not worth the stress and long hours, trust me.

Pros

Compensation and bonus has been available through ebbs and flows of business. Hard work is typically seen and rewarded.

Cons

7 line managers in 10 years (through one role change) Company restructures often. You must be willing to adapt and thrive in constant change.
