Pros

These folks are all very knowledgeable and cordial. They seem to be very happy people. They took me on and intended to find me a job. There was no other thought than that. They were on time to every phone call or meeting, kept me apprised every step of the way, and worked very hard behind the scenes. I felt wanted and appreciated.

Cons

There are no cons at this time

Pros

Managers do not micromanage, everybody is helpful and friendly, good task distribution (it is a busy job and it is fast paced but it is manageable and super interesting), learning opportunities, collaborative team work, salary and benefits, amazing PTO, effective communication across teams and departments, great onboarding training, responsible coworkers, trust among teams, flexible work schedule, hybrid and/or remote work is an option for some positions, excellent work/life balance. Good work gets recognized and ample growth opportunity, this is the best company I have ever worked at! Proud and happy to work at ICON.

Cons

Cannot think of many cons other than some of the tech systems could be updated. There are other tricky workaround procedures to request IT services and the likes but nothing too cumbersome considering this is a huge company.
