Pros

Strong training program. Able to gain lots of experience in a short amount of time.

Cons

Takes advantage of employees. Prone to adding to employee workload until it becomes unsustainable.

Medpace Response

We are proud to provide robust training and growth opportunities to individuals beginning their careers within the industry. It is true that we demand a great deal from our associates and it is apparent that Medpace was not the best fit for you. We wish you well in your future endeavors.

A place to learn but way overworked and under-supported.

Clinical research associate

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

-Training program for new CRAs can help you break into clinical research. -Travel perks let you keep airline/hotel points.

Cons

- Noncompete agreement. To my knowledge, this is the only CRO that is willing to pay lawyers to chase after employees that leave instead of paying their CRAs/other employees more or improving employee retention. - High turnover because of low pay and poor management leads to a chaotic work environment. Very stressful and unnecessarily so. - They advertise 2-3 protocols on average and 10-15 sites. Reality is 4-6 protocols and 20+ sites. Requests to manager for workload reduction are brushed aside/ignored. - Work culture: Work/Life balance is terrible. Though they give you PTO and sick days, the workload they assign you makes it so that taking time off makes your return to work very stressful as it builds up. Many at the company just seem to think it's acceptable to work 7 days a week with no end in sight.

Medpace Response

Thank you for the review! We take great pride in our training program for our CRA team members through our PACE (Professionals Achieving CRA Excellence) program. This is highly valued in our organization, and we've received wonderful feedback from sponsors. With our CRAs in particular we reward them not just with base compensation but with an opportunity to earn significant additional compensation tied directly to their travel and performance as well as the opportunity to earn Medpace equity awards very early in their career. We wish you the best of luck in your new endeavor!
