Pros

-100% remote job role -experience/exposure not limited to limited data management activities but excellent end to end clinical trial experience from set-up to close-out, most projects are under models where Fortrea facilitates & delivers a clinical trial entirely. -responsibilities evenly distributed within project team among lead data manager, project manager, clinical team lead, lead biostatistician, medical expert, vendor manager, project coordinator - each member brings respective domain expertise & this enables effective cross-functional collaboration to achieve study goals. -high growth potential for performing employees

Cons

-no yearly bonus -promotion is granted however promotion hike is very low -disparity in designation and job role within the project (lower designation but performing at a higher role within projects)

Pros

Positive culture Surrounded by experienced and supportive colleagues FTO flexibility Overall- Employees are valued and appreciated by leadership Great and supportive LM team Used to have have great bonus and compensation program Has many great tools and resources available

Cons

- After spin off there seem to be a bottle neck with career progression. - many great financial tools that are not integrated together - Financial oversight ( at least trends and overall performance) - should be automated ASAP and issues be identified early and project team should be prompted accordingly - Top heavy- too many layers on the top. no need to have PD and DD they can be merged in one and work allocation should be based seniority and experience. -
