Pros
Flexible work from home People ‘ want ‘ to do a good job but held back due to poor technology in most areas.
Cons
CEO is not concerned about morale or work from all departments. —disjointed. —Euro centric company and heavy into India. —From director level on down to worker level everyone is extremely stressed and overworked. (Not the VPs and EVPs) —Constant awards / wins coming through and they keep piling on the work. —-upper exec mngt meds to look to the VP and EVP in specific areas with high turnover or recent high turnover! ( poor leadership) —staff leave and they don’t replace which in turn causes burnout of other workers. —used to be great company with good training and now you are thrown to the wolves w No training. No support. —HR slow and not helpful at all. You have to put in a ticket to talk to someone! Unreal. Other companies with twice the amount of employees do not have this set up! —new CEO came in and made many changes and not for the better. Not everyone can be Billable when working with your direct reports and teams. Then you get punished for not being fully utilized but the contract doesn’t cover directors!!! —directors have oversight to f so many studies they can’t be effective and able to help 20 teams and 40 plus studies!!!!! -way way too much offshoring to India—- bring it back to EU, ROW and US. Decrease margins a bit. -poor work from India. Turnover now high in India —PMs on too many projects as well as other areas. —insane volume of work. Turnover in all depts. —- can’t even hire because everyone knows ICON pays poorly and expects overtime everyday including weekends.
