Pros

Other departments in Icon seem to be better. Stay away from study start up. Management is ignorant to processes and very rude to employees.

Cons

The New employees coming to this department are leaving in droves. Management does not know how to train and feels humiliation is the key to success. They are nothing more than bullies and are very rude to the new and old staff. Stay away from this department. Do not be tricked into joining the study start up team. Look in another department at Icon or somewhere else.

Annual salary increase this year isn't until September which is odd.

Pros

Great team up to director level. Good place to start career, however not many open positions in US

Cons

Contracts are often unclear not including all needed services, leading to financial overburn. The company relies on multiple tracking systems, creating inefficiencies and frustrations for employees, and prioritizes hiring in low-cost regions, which are known for high employee turnover.
