Pros

Get a foot in the door of clinical trials

Cons

Teams can be great, and they typically are. The problem is the upper upper management - controlling CEO and his HR bullies. RTO with 2 weeks notice... totally derranged person. Every merit, promotion any approval he signs in person... the line managers are just puppets and even tho they see and appreciate your work - they cannot do anything. They also cannot approve anything outside of policy and the policy is crazy. This company is a prison. Stay away.

We pride ourselves in offering opportunities to individuals early in their career giving them proper training to grow within the industry and in their career. We are, however, saddened by your view of Medpace leadership, management, and HR as we are proud of the leadership we have in our management teams. We recognize we cannot please everyone, and we do our best to provide an environment where our employees feel challenged, motivated, valued, and encouraged to advance.

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.
