Unrealistic work load

Pros

The facilities are very good. The amount of holiday is ok. The training processes are good. There are some career opportunities.

Cons

The work load is very high with tight deadlines and only few experienced staff remain at the company. New staff leaving soon, some after a few months. Compensation is insufficient.

Pros

cafeteria, nice size cube, company outings, free cupcakes for birthday months.

Cons

underpaid, arbitrary office politics, unprofessional coworkers, heinously biased and unorganized HR staff - frankly there are other CRO oriented businesses much worth your time to seek employment with
