Pros

I've been in research as a CRA for 10 yrs, device & now pharma. I have never felt more supported in my professional & personal life than now. My LM, James May, is the best manager I've ever had in my career. Not only does he care, but he works as my advocate to get me closer to my career goals & experience I desire in multiple therapeutic areas. This is also my first experience as a CRA where my hard work & skill set are regularly recognized & rewarded including salary increases & bonus opportunities.

Cons

A good manager (LM) is key. If you're not satisfied, say something. PXL has proven to be a company that will work with you.

Pros

Well trained managers that empower you, truly listen to you, and only do well if YOU do well/ they provide resources and definitely offer development opportunities to those who want them AND have demonstrated they can maintain their scoped, regular duties at a high level of quality while working on special development projects Also unlimited RTO in US

Cons

no bonuses and too much focus/emphasis on how many years with *Parexel*, as opposed to how many years total you have been in the industry (ex doing site management at another CRO or Sponsor group )
