Pros

Good company to work for. Benefits were great, compensation was fair. Not unusual to work 50+ hours, but that went with the terriroty. Line management was aware of this and tried to work with you as much as possible. I'd recommend the company to anyone looking to work for a CRO.

Cons

I was there in a period of transition for the company as a whole and some of the opportunities for advancement for lower level positions just were not there. I believe this has been sorted out since, however.

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)
