Pros

The functional team leaders work together well and there is a collegial, can-do attitude. I love my colleagues. Managers are experienced and professional. Support staff (a lot of new hires without clinical development experience) are enthusiastic and eager to learn. The computer systems are easy to use compared to other large CROs.

Cons

Medpace requires a non-compete clause that restricts working for another CRO for 1 year after leaving, either by your choice or if you’re let go. This is also severely limiting to growth options within Medpace. There is no clear structure for 360 review of line managers and team members and annual reviews are loosely managed and subjective. It’s really hard to get better than “meets expectations” - and this impacts pay and bonuses.

Thank you for the feedback. We are thrilled to hear that you enjoy working with your Regulatory Submissions team. In regards to our Proprietary Rights Agreement, the non-compete agreement portion is a very common practice in competitive industries, such as ours. Medpace notifies all candidates who interview of our employment contract prior to offering a position. This allows each candidate to evaluate if the non-compete agreement is something they feel comfortable with prior to joining the organization. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

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.
