Pros

Good people work here and need their jobs.

Cons

The greedy callous owners have laid off every hourly employee-via email on a Friday afternoon. Really? You cowards. You would rather keep your pockets lined than support the people you make your money off of. Shameful and disgusting.

In this time of COVID-19, Medpace, like a lot of businesses, has had to make some very difficult decisions. Although we had maintained our full workforce with full pay for the initial weeks of Ohio’s lockdown order, despite the fact that many of our positions cannot be performed if our campus is not open, unfortunately this is not a sustainable long term option. It was a difficult decision to release some of our on-campus staff, which did impact a portion of our hourly employees, and we hope that the severance packages offered to them will help in part to sustain during a difficult economic time for everyone. Although these communications were confirmed via email, Medpace made multiple efforts to contact staff in person in advance of the email communication. We certainly understand the frustration and anxiety everyone feels in this difficult time and we are confident that by working together we will get through this. Stay safe!

Pros

Coworkers are willing to help you and answer questions.

Cons

Abysmal pay for industry standards. Work will be piled on continuously. More and more studies. Forced to present impossible timelines. And then you have to speak to why these timelines were not met after the fact when it's outside of your control. Travel expectations thrown at you with a couple days notice. CEO micromanages the entire company. They track when you badge in and badge out of the building. You have to badge out to exit. Upper management throws you under the bus in front of sponsor despite agreeing with you in prep call and telling you they will have your back. People here work crazy long hours late into the evening and think it's normal.
