IQVIA reviews

In 2013 & 2014, they have eliminated hundreds of US & European jobs under the guise of "globalizing" their operations. In reality, operations have been centralized to low-cost centers in India and South Africa in order to increase profits. Professional growth opportunities for US based employees in data & safety monitoring are almost non-existent. There is also a lack of work/life balance and work loads can be unmanageable due to high turnover rates for data team leads. Schedules were previously tailored to meet client and personal needs, but since the move to low-cost centers in India, US based employees are expected to attend meetings early in the morning or late at night depending on which shift their Indian counterparts work. Lack of focus on the value that US employees bring to the company is a major concern. Emphasis on profits, rather than quality delivered at a reasonable price seems to be the new plan.

This company does not care about the well being of their employees. Everyone feels stressed and overworked in every department. I have never seen a CRO give 7-10 studies to one individual. The compensation does not match the amount of work, stress, management, and difficulty of the job. This role has a huge emphasis on budgets and finances, however, this was never mentioned during the interview. It almost sets everyone up for failure. My entire team despises this thing called EAC every month. There are too many trainings and it’s impossible to retain all the information when upper management decides to change everything constantly. Bonuses and merit raises are essentially non-existent. Overall, I have never disliked a company so much. You are just a number here and that’s it.
