Pros

Dedication to training, provides all the tools needed for success, lots of room for career growth. Management really takes into account the things that are important to you for project placement. Good work/life balance. Excellent compensation.

Cons

Your work experience is entirely subjective with many variables. It depends on your line manager, the project you're placed on, your project manager, how the Sponsor treats you - there are many elements that affect whether or not you have a positive experience. Also, the health insurance is not that great.

Pros

One deal breaker that shines with PPD is the employees, good group of people to work with which is a morale booster.

Cons

Poor salary, more so if you have been with the company for a certain amount of years. Management needs to listen to employees concerns, and be flexible with work/home life, Promote within first, before going external.
