Pros

Honestly nothing at this point.

Cons

Severe weather (10+ inches of snow and ice) that caused even local outpatient hospitals to close wasn’t even acknowledged by Medpace management and we were expected to just go about our business as normal even though majority of the roads surrounding campus were fully closed due to crashes, forcing most to use PTO or a precious “annual” WFH day. They couldn’t even bother to plow their own parking lots, but still expected us to risk our safety to make sure we get our 8 hours in. Not to mention, of course, they were kind enough to close all their restaurants on campus for the safety of those workers, which further proves that Medpace’s employees are not cared for in the slightest. It’s actually embarrassing at this point to work for this company and I’m counting down the days until I get to leave.

In unfavorable weather conditions, Medpace offers PTO and flex time as an option for employees who are unable to make it to the office.

Thank you for the review. We are proud of the leadership we have in our management teams, and we encourage employees to speak to their HR Representative should they have any concerns. Also, we review our compensation and benefits regularly to ensure we are competitive within the industry and geographically. We are sorry Medpace was not a fit for you but wish you well in your future endeavors.

Horrible Employer

Pros

Free fountain drinks and coffee

Cons

I would strongly advise against working at Medpace or engaging with them as a partner. My experience at this company was nothing short of disastrous, Leadership (mostly CEO) is incredibly out of touch with the reality of day to day operations. There's a serious lack of communication and transparency from the top down. Instead of fostering an open and collaborative culture. they cultivate a climate of fear and micromanagement. The executive team seems more concerned with their own self-interest than the well-being of employees or the company as a whole. As for the work environment, it's toxic/ The pressure to constantly perform at unrealistic levels creates an atmosphere of stress and burnout. Management doesn't seem to care about employee retention or work life balance. Instead they expect you to grind endlessly with little regard for personal well being. Medpace is a company that lacks employee respect, has poor leadership, and fosters a toxic, high pressure environment. I wouldn't trust them with any more of my career than I already have. Stay far away if you value your well being and integrity.
