Pros

-Good benefits package -Excellent place to work right out of college -Training is offered on a continual basis and there are a substantial amount of opportunities for additional softskills courses -There is a nice social atmosphere. People are friendly for the most part. -Great place to come for some clinical experience

Cons

-Poor management communication. Employees often find out new guidelines or study changes with very short notice. Management seems baffled when employees get frustrated. -Moving up is difficult. Promotions are not guaranteed and not even with a great performance. Management prefers the "yes" men as favorites. -Not properly compensated in the current market compared to other CROs. -No sick leave (only PTO for everything).

Pros

Provided health insurance. Good coworkers Good exposure to team at client site If you have a good technical lead, the job can be great!

Cons

You have 2 bosses (Technical lead from Client Site) and your PPD boss. PPD Boss does not know what is going on If you have a bad technical lead, your life can be miserable. Pay is low No protection from abusive technical lead (coworkers on same team can have a drastically different experience)
