Pros

It is a growing business, so there is opportunity for upward and lateral movement within the company. Free lunch every day is always a plus, management is sensitive to personal issues.

Cons

Too many layers of management, the CRA managers have too much control over responsibilities that are supposed to be related to the CTM. Your experience is strongly dictated on your manager, if you have a laid back understanding manager you will be fine but if your manager is strict it will not be enjoyable for you. There are drastic pay differences for the same job that they justify although it does not always make sense. (20k pay differences for the same work) You are very expendable as a CRA because they hire often and in large quantities.
