Un Believably Crappy (UBC)

Pros

Free electronic screen wipes and coffee in the break room. Work from home 2x week but not a Friday with a following Monday (strictly). That’s the best that can be said about UBC.

Cons

Too many to mention. A couple of examples... - you reserve a conference room for a client call only to find that a VP or the Pres. has stolen your room without telling you, so you need to find a new space at the last minute. You and your team are late for the client call. Frequent occurrence, not just once in a while. - your contract requires a technology implementation. Your management signs the agreement knowing there are not enough IT resources to implement said project. Client is dissatisfied because their implementation is delayed. Finance and sr. Management is unhappy because revenue is delayed since you couldn’t bill the client for the project on time. Everyone is extremely overworked and stressed. Overall, a very unpleasant place to work. AVOID UBC unless you are desperate for some temporary income.

Pros

Free pretzel Tuesdays, the team I work with

Cons

Very stressful, lack of cooperation and response from internal team members including Senior Management, only employees who worked together at another CRO with the president move up the ladder and are able to ride the wave without putting in much effort

Pros

Flexiable at times, insurance

Cons

I am not saying anything new by adding to the point that this entire company clearly plays on favoritism and who has been there the longest. Management does not personally find out how people are doing but will rely on the incompetent misinformation given to them by those they promote(friends) who are truly the ones who do no work! There is no job security, as they have had two major lay offs in the past year alone and no one..at all..cares about your growth and will throw work at you, WITH NO TRAINING WHAT SO EVER and without any regard to your current work load! I would NOT recommend anyone applying for a position here.
