Pros

Good for getting experience in the field. Coworkers are great. Benefits are fine for a single person- not sure about families.

Cons

Middle and upper management are messy. There is a lack of transparency surrounding pay. Every promotion seems to be delayed for no reason. Merit increases and bonuses do not keep up with inflation at all.

Pros

Nice campus, clean and newly renovated. I would say it's a good "first job" out of college but this company will leave a horrible taste in your mouth when it comes to CROs.

Cons

Poor communication between management and employees. Reversal of the remote work policy with very little flexibility, despite not having sufficient parking for the employees (employees are forced to park in remote lots). The environment itself is toxic and the stress level is high due to random mass-firings of its employees. Think "I could be next" mentality. Job security is non-existent. The pay is well below the industry standard and the workload is well above the industry standard or what is even considered reasonable. The bonus and the merit raises are non-existent OR laughably low (0-1% on average with a less than 1% bonus). Benefits are way more expensive than other companies - $9,000 more than other companies yearly for family medical plans (horrible benefits). The CEO is a horrible person who says he would replace the employees with AI if he could (he said this to the employees and laughed). To the folks still working there - know that there is MUCH better out there - better companies with better pay and zero toxicity. To anyone looking to work there, find anything else!

We are saddened by your view of Medpace and taken back by your comments. We encourage all our employees with workload issues or work flexibility issues to speak directly to their line manager or come to HR if the issues continue. In addition, we review our compensation and benefits regularly to ensure we are still being competitive within the industry and geographically and this includes consideration of the cost of living. We recognize we cannot please everyone, and we do our best to provide an environment where our employees feel challenged, motivated, valued, and encouraged to advance. We wish you well in your future endeavors.
