Pros

Thorough training, provided opportunity for new CRAs to enter the field, travel bonus was very rewarding if you were traveling a lot.

Cons

While training is thorough, you are thrown into independent monitoring very quickly. Lots of in the job learning. Starting salary is not great, but after about a year-18 months it does go up quite a bit. Work load is crazy-typically 2-4 onsite days each week. I was gone most days of the week (could be a pro depending on if you like the travel).

Thank you for the feedback. 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. With our CRAs in particular we reward them not just with base compensation but with an opportunity to earn significant additional compensation tied directly to their travel and performance as well as the opportunity to earn Medpace equity awards very early in their 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.
