Pros

Will hire you with little to no experience. Free salad every day.

Cons

This is the most toxic work environment I ever had to be in. There is no spirit of teamwork or collaboration here, new employees are simply scapegoats for problems that are way out of their control. They are set up to fail no matter what, so management always has someone to blame. Never have I seen a work environment so cutthroat and unproductive due to a complete lack of trust between all coworkers. If you have just graduated college and are looking for a job in science, DO NOT ACCEPT A JOB OFFER FROM THESE MONSTERS. I have made it a mission to make sure I tell everyone not to work for this company. Seriously,

Pros

Certain management is great Nice PTO - 15 vacation days and 6 sick days Free salad for lunch if in Cincinnati

Cons

They took away many employee bonuses this year, after the bonuses were already supposed to have been paid out. People lost thousands of dollars with days of notice, after planning on bonus per SOP all year. They not do any team building activities Employees are not valued and are looked at as a number You are not eligible for any bonus if you take more than 10 weeks sick or maternity leave No stock option except for “senior employees”

Thank you for your feedback. Medpace is proud to be able to provide discretionary bonuses and other incentive rewards in addition to standard salary to employees who meet or exceed performance expectations. We understand it can be very disappointing not to receive a desired bonus. However, minimum eligibility and performance standards apply to all employees here at Medpace and are reviewed during this process. We encourage employees to have an honest conversation with their managers and address proactive ways to reach set goals.
