Pros

I truly cannot think of a single one

Cons

Management is extremely poor. They pretend like issues don’t exist and leave their clinical staff to deal with all their shortcomings and inability to manage literally anything. Poor pay. Getting hit by a car crossing the street to the building in the morning typically sounds like a better outcome than going into work.

Pros

Parexel is such a great place to work. The leadership team cares about the employees and is always open for suggestions with making it a great place to work. The culture is very supportive even in this difficult time with lack of resources. Career development is available for people who want to move up.

Cons

Global resource challenges. Very yes focused company even when something is not achievable.

Pros

Work from home- fair enough pay

Cons

Horrible HR- most everything is outsourced to India to save money. Poor training, sops that make no sense, outdated, lack of vision and leadership. No real investment in employees. No work life balance. Most time just cleaning up messes made outside US for upset clients.
