Pros

Not much. If you say yes to everything they will like you. Get experience there and then jump ship. Not much else

Cons

No advancement opportunities- they hire leaders from outside and are usually friends of the director. Dictator leadership style. Do not recognize leaderships part in very high turnover. Other CROs have better morale and opportunity for advancement.

Pros

Strong Leadership, Fair/Average compensation, Thrive Program (company strives to keep you employeed as Sponsor reallocations occur)

Cons

HR is very hands off. It is very difficult to speak to anyone. Not simple to call and ask a question. Everything has to go through a portal. This is challenging when there is time sensitive needs. They make it work but in my opinion, this is a 'con'.
