Pros

Great new Dallas office and detailed training program with great mentors.

Cons

All white company. Overworked and underpaid. No home-based work option until 1 year or 8 site days per month. Some employees that were there over 2 years still never got to be home-based.

Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear you enjoy our newly renovated office in Dallas and the wonderful training programs we have in place. We take great pride in the PACE training program for new CRAs and have received wonderful feedback from sponsors. We are very taken back about your comments on diversity. We are extremely proud of the diverse culture we promote here at Medpace. We value employees from all different backgrounds and believe that contributes to much of our success. Medpace has allowed remote work where we feel remote work is possible. We have not offered widespread remote work in the past, as we feel our work is conducted more efficiently and collaboratively from the office environment. Once the pandemic is over and we are no longer on staggered every other week in office schedules, we plan to maintain elements of regular work from home flexibility in most of our positions and locations. This positive change was just recently announced to our employees and as anticipated has been positively received. Medpace was clearly not a fit for you, but we wish you well in your future endeavors.

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.
