Thank you for the review. We are pleased to hear that you feel we have a very effective training program. We take great pride in our training program for our CRA team members through our PACE (Professionals Achieving CRA Excellence) program. This is highly valued in our organization and we've received wonderful feedback from sponsors. We have a designated team working with line managers and executive leadership to regularly review our compensation and benefits to ensure we are being competitive within our industry. CRAs in particular have extensive opportunity to recognize increased compensation once their PACE training is complete, including travel and workload-based bonuses as well as training achievement bonuses. We appreciate your feedback.

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.
