Pros

There are a lot of open opportunities within company in the region or globally, and re-allocation is often seen. ICON does take account to employee's career development.

Cons

Currently, Asia Pacific market is emerging, however, sometimes too much projects were bidden, and workload for Asia employees sometimes are too much depending on region / market.

Pros

Good experience in high pressure work environment

Cons

Employees welfare is ignored in order to keep clients happy. There is a steady stream of people leaving to better paid jobs with shorter working hours and better benefits. The company needs to wake up and treat their staff better before there is no one left to help line the execs pockets
