Pros

Beautiful Office, friendly/flexible employees and management. Lots of career opportunities as such a growing company.

Cons

Lots of change in management recently, once this has settled down it will be easier to get to grips with the organisation structure. Benefits are currently being reviewed so this will turn into a pro.

Horrible Company to work for. STAY AWAY at all costs!

Pros

Location (because it is in around Union Square)

Cons

My experience there was absolutely terrible. Previously, I was working at a great company and had job security. I never applied to Medidata, the money hungry recruiter found me on Monster...basically stalked me until I picked up my phone. She managed to convince me of how great Medidata was and matched the ridiculous salary that I requested right off the bat (should have been a red flag). I was rushed in giving my two weeks to my previous employer. I then received calls from the recruiter (and my upcoming new manager) to NOT give two weeks to my previous employer and put emphasis on how they want me to start ASAP (something that shows they didn't care about me maintaing a positive reputation with my old company or how that could affect me) I finally started at Medidata and was worked like a slave to finish my project. After 3 weeks I finished my project and was told that a "business decision" to let me go is being made....AFTER I FINISHED THE WHOLE PROJECT THEY BROUGHT ME ON TO DO. I was constantly being rushed and given crazy deadlines, only to be let go after 3 weeks upon finishing my assignment. They left me without a job in a hard economic time (they basically pulled me away from my previous employer because they offered me an obscene amount of money, knowing I would take it) and now I am in an awful situation because of them. STAY AWAY! they are very bad people. DO NOT BE MANIPULATED BY WHAT THEY PROMISE YOU! The recruiters get commission if they find new employees...they do not care about the people at all.

Pros

I joined the company two months ago and I couldn't be happier. It was a tough decision to leave my old company, but the people, the exciting work, the management, the brand new facilities and company overall have made the jump VERY worthwhile. One of the top 5 company goals is to be the Employer of Choice in life sciences and it's very obvious. I've already recommended the company to 2 friends.

Cons

Working in the old facilities while the new ones are being built.
