Pros

Ability to do remote visits helps meet days on site requirement

Cons

Gaslighting (withhold training information, then back track and tease CRAs and put them down for not knowing something that no one told them). * Bad company culture - CRAs and managers act like they are in a race to put down each other in front of other people and throw other people under the bus all the time for attention, including grown middle-age women who should know better by now. They assign CRAs 25 sites at a time, and they yell at them if they don’t have 8 visits/16 days on site per month, even though they claim their minimum is 8 days on site per month. Also, your sites will be located all across the country, so if you’re in the northwest, expect to have more than half of your sites in the southeast. No In house CRAs, you’ll be doing the job of about 5 people. They yell at you for not responding to emails while traveling.

Pros

Great compensation - talented employees

Cons

CEO, Global and U.S. Presidents focus on nothing but numbers. Efforts to push as many jobs as possible offshore have most employees waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Pros

Compensation and benefits are above average. Work-life balance depends on the team and role but my personal experience has been good

Cons

RTO policy 3-days on site, but at least it's flexible instead of fixed days. Although company is good with people to change roles, it is hard to get directly promoted as you will still have to compete for promotion
