Business Outlook

Pros

A paycheck and a company car (more like a coffin on wheels).

Cons

There is very little to nothing that I can say positive about my experience at Syneos. Syneos allows the client to treat their reps in any way or fashion. If the client wants to screw the Salesforce out of their hard earned bonus, Syneos is on board. If the client wants to provide less than stars PTO and sick time, Syneos is okay with that. If you voluntarily leave the company, Syneos only pays you 1/3 of your EARNED PTO.
