PPD reviews

PPD has developed a culture which seeks to dictate rather than encourage. Working environment is very insolar with employees furiously tapping at their computers. There is a strong emphasis placed upon process and policy to the extent that common sense is abandoned and initiative is actively discouraged. The Management style is not conducive to employee development. Rather it is based upon top down directives which you quickly understand to conform to otherwise be ostracised. Management with the department i work are a tight knit group who backed one another at the general expense of their subordinates including refusing to talk to certain employees and openly lying about their performance to others. Poor communication generally from management and no gratitude shown for the hard work performed by employees Highly questionable level of integrity amongst management Archaic systems and multiple platforms which do not communicate to each other resulting in a high level of duplication of work Despite a 10% increase in EBITDA employee's payrise were 1.3%.

Like other big companies, you're ultimately judged on metrics which is BS. So you can find a patient safety issue and resolve it, you can write excellent trip reports, you can be a great support person for your sites, you can know your protocol inside out... but in the end you'll be judged on report turnaround times, how quickly you sent out letters, etc, etc. These metrics really dont tell the boss anything useful about your performance, but they're still used as the ultimate indicator of performance somehow.
