Pros

Flexible work hours and casual attire make physically going to work enjoyable.

Cons

Favoritism is rampant throughout the Imaging group, which leads to horribly incompetent management. Career advancement opportunities are bad, salary raises are insignificant, and career development is also poor. You gain very little in transferable skills, and the inefficient work processes are intractable due to the poor management. Internal team dynamics are usually sacrificed in returns of seemingly positive appearances to clients.

Pros

full service CRO, lots of capabilities and resources for global studies. good at linking up resources/talent to study needs. very inclusive and good at recognizing talent. people are seen and best contributors are usually taken care of.

Cons

lots of changes being rolled out with limited transparency. contracting can be challenging. site payments and study closeout are areas that need improvement.
