Pros

Very few pros. Some really good coworkers, and connections.

Cons

Please do not work for this company if you have any self-respect. This company is corrupt, people are quitting every week. They advertise that they have been awarded the title of top workplace, and that they offer competitive pay and benefits, but this is not true. If you are working for them for any position lower than management level, you will be underpaid by about $20,000. In addition to this, their health insurance is a joke. It is absolutely ridiculous with how expensive it is, and it does not have good coverage. The moral is so low, and management is oblivious to the fact, or they choose to overlook it. HR also does not keep complaints and reports confidential, despite the fact that you requested that it be kept confidential. People are so overworked that things are constantly getting overlooked and quality events are a common occurrence. Sponsor companies are lied to and constantly misled. There is never the intention to follow through with promises or guarantees.

Medpace Response
7y
Although our preference would be not to debate a complaint from a former disgruntled employee in a public forum, we feel compelled to respond to the offensive and untrue accusations made. Unfortunately, we recognize that you were unhappy with your exit, and do not feel that you received the management support needed to successfully do your job. We are very aware that Medpace is going through a period of high growth within the organization. Our leadership has made a great effort to acknowledge the efforts of valued employees during a busy season. We take our mission to accelerate the global development of safe and effective therapeutics seriously and welcome the growth that comes with it despite potential times of high volume. We take offense to the allegation that we do so with anything less than complete integrity with regard to our work product and our relationships with Sponsors. Any issues brought to HR are a priority. They are all reviewed, and then escalated as necessary. We are always willing to address specific concerns, and also make it clear that we will escalate depending on the specific concern. In your case, we felt that escalation of your concerns was imperative, and we respectfully disagree with your allegation that it was a breach confidentially to do so. We are disappointed you chose to end your career with Medpace on a negative note, but wish you luck in all future endeavors.

Pros

Great training program and many young professionals.

Cons

Medpace continues to hire new CRAs while their current CRAs sit at their desks for months waiting to be assigned a study. If you are someone who likes to sit at a desk day after day while trying to find things to do to fill your time (management suggests going back through training because they have nothing else to preoccupy you), then this job is for you.

Pros

Great perks like free lunch (mostly salad), free fitness classes, on-site gym, flex time, casual dress. Company is working on standardizing training as they grow quickly. Can advance quickly if you put the work in.

Cons

Atmosphere depends greatly on your supervisor. Some managers are not great people supervisors and need more training. Benefits are a bit expensive.
