Pros

The people are amazing and the office is in a central location.

Cons

Low salary with no opportunity for bonuses. Raises are between 1-3% annually and are based on the team as a whole, not individual performance. It is very difficult to advance out of the Project Associate role and as a result, there is a very high turnover for this position.

Pros

The Janssen Flex program is great. The relationship between Janssen and ICON employees is very positive and supportive. Wfh/ Remote opportunities are available

Cons

The company culture since the acquisition of PRA has changed for the worst (I was a legacy PRA employee) Very low pay compared to industry standards. No support from management. Zero work-life balance. Stay away from this place
