Pros

RTO; nothing else really sorry

Cons

-management lets sponsor make all the calls, even if its against SOPs -management will allow sponsor's to open studies despite study documents/budgets being finalized (adding risk to patient safety which was said to be "manageable") -management itself is seriously lacking as they are over worked -training provided is mediocre -you WILL NOT travel within your region (CRAs are expected to travel nationwide) -Company promotes two cost-of-living raises a year, but will likely provide only one -Management will falsify employee information to save themselves (keep receipts of everything you do:) -Internal promotions are next to zero probability -Compensation is not competitive -CRAs are expected to work overtime, no pay provided for this

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 )
