Pros

The company does allow for some flexibility in work hours however they are subject to managers who often do not understand the rules for flexing time, salad every day, gym

Cons

After about 6 months of working for the company my position was eliminated due to COVID-19 and I was not given the opportunity to move into one of the hundreds of open positions within the company. I am very disappointed in the leadership of this company because there are many ways that they could have taken care of the people that worked for them but they chose not to do that and that is all you need to know about the company.

Thank you for leaving a review. We are saddened by your thoughts of Medpace. In this uncertain time of COVID-19, we have had to make some very difficult decisions (just like most other organizations). Although we had maintained our full workforce with full pay for the initial weeks of the various lockdowns, 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 very difficult decision to release some of our on-campus staff, and we hope that the severance packages offered to them will help in part to sustain during a difficult economic time for everyone. We certainly understand the frustration and anxiety everyone has felt in this difficult time and we are confident that by working together we will get through this. We are starting to operate “business as usual” and are confident we will be able to continue our growth as the year continues. Certainly we understand your frustration about being selected for layoff and we wish you well in your future career.

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.
