Pros

Coworkers are, for the most part, great. Driven individuals with a can-do attitude that are used to doing more with less. Opportunities for remote and hybrid work are there, for now.

Cons

In a very short space of time, Perceptive is set on proving all of the stereotypes associated with private equity-owned businesses to be true. Hiring is frozen (this is an assumption based on personal experience, because freezes are never communicated to those most impacted by them), benefits are being slashed and employees are being asked to do even more with even less. 10 days of paid parental leave is a joke, as is starting the year with zero sick time- and being told that we still have the "opportunity" to use PTO or to take sick time unpaid is a slap in the face. We're all waiting to hear how you've decided to save money on our health insurance.

Pros

My coworkers were all great. Being a CRO, a good variety of studies came through, giving me exposure to a variety of imaging modalities and study designs. The work is varied and interesting.

Cons

There has been some recent turnover and company structure changes due to the company recently being acquired.

Pros

Supportive co-workers make it worthwhile to stay Variety in therapeutic areas make it interesting to learn Customization in study design allows for a wide range of exposure to different study set-up needs Relatively generous PTO plan

Cons

No transparency from leadership Stressful deadlines/unrealistic expectations Lack of proactive communication between departments Most departments are currently understaffed Onboarding takes a long time Recent merger has caused too many things to change all at once creating a lot of chaos in the organization in an effort to 'streamline' Benefits have gone downhill over time Lots of overtime to keep up with study demands
