Pros

Free parking lot Nice co-workers

Cons

Another dysfunctional mid-size CRO Lot of inefficiency at every single level. No team spirit between departments and sometime within the same department Poor Management with limited scientific expertise. No leadership and resistance to chance. Implementing new things take forever for no reason. Low salary and poor advantages Professional growth is quite limited Training somehow inefficient. Lot of informations shared within the first 6 weeks but no time for assimilation. Internal processes are so complicated that working from home is barely possible

Pros

some good cowerkers Next to metro station

Cons

Don’t go to screening department ever !! Very disappointing experience due to rampant favoritism, poor micromanagement ( they seem to have plenty of time to track serious people time ) added to the lack of recognition for deserving individuals. It causes toxic working environment even if coworkers are trying to be nice and supportive and trying to train you in the best way but management is not encouraging teamwork culture and are applying negative stress on the team Too much unprofessional behavior from supervisors like screaming, accusatory tones mostly towards serious people . Clear guidelines are absent, leading to inefficiency and stress. Micromanagement is excessive, useless supervisors causing delays and further stress. Overall, hostile atmosphere discouraging good people!
