Parexel reviews

The actual work environment in RTP anyway has gone to the partial cube structure (where when you are at your desk you can see a sea of heads). It is very impersonal, very difficult to hold a TC without disturbing someone and there is NO PRIVACY what-so-ever. This alone has caused a drop in morale. Other cons: the previous comments from others about over work is true but I believe you will find this in all CRO nowadays if not all corporate; everyone is trying to get by with less. There is definite burnout but if you are a hard worker who continues to achieve and excel you will be rewarded.

The amount of work. This company is taking on more than the current staff can handle. When management is told, they blame the workers saying it is because they don't how to prioritize. Quality of work being produced is horrible. Some people try hard to make good quality but one person can not catch every single little mistake which starts adding up to bigger problems. Some people who don't make any extra effort or take advantage of their position are treated with extra perks where those who basically sacrifice their personal lives are not even thanked. Giving free fresh fruit on Mondays and Wednesdays with free bagels on Mondays is not a perk for someone who doesn't even touch it. That is not rewarding the excessive hours someone has given. The stress is extremely unbelievable and management doesn't even bat an eye. They think its normal and give the impression they are re-evaluating things. Please people can spot a liar a mile away and when they see no changes except more work and additional responsibly what is someone supposed to think? Theres no career growth. If you aren't liked, forget getting a promotion. You will never advance and are stuck being in a job where they will work you to death or you quit. Lunch breaks don't even exist.
