Pros

PRA was an amazing company until it was purchased by ICON last year.

Cons

Icon leadership lacks diversity. Leadership very old school and micromanage employees. Employees are no longer empowered. They didn’t even conduct an exit interview. They don’t care about employees.

Pros

great company with good opportunities. very flexible schedule.

Cons

pay better than my last job but still not good. ICON and PRA are currently taking some time to merge. as a new hire I have 2 PRA emails and 1 ICON email. I didn't get a computer until the end of my first week. I still don't have access to 90% of what I need to do including the SOPs for training. Management is questionable on their knowledge.-10/10 do not recommend working here.
