Pros

Established company with multiple business units, many experienced medical personnel with years of research experience, average work/life balance depending on account and time of the year, mid-level managers see the needs of the clients and employees, good place for a start in pharmaceuticals and medical devices.

Cons

High turn-over within 2 years, few opportunities to advance without mid-level manager sponsorship, low to mid-range pay scale for industry, senior managers don't have interest in employees.

Pros

full service CRO, lots of capabilities and resources for global studies. good at linking up resources/talent to study needs. very inclusive and good at recognizing talent. people are seen and best contributors are usually taken care of.

Cons

lots of changes being rolled out with limited transparency. contracting can be challenging. site payments and study closeout are areas that need improvement.
