- Current Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★Featured Review
Pros
In my experience, PPD has been great at promoting work/life balance, even as I'm in a traveling position. It can be stressful at times, as with any job when you have deadlines for tasks, but I have never felt overwhelmed with work at this company. I have always felt very valued as an employee. I've given my all, but been recognized for it also, which is very important to me. In 5 years at the company, I've been promoted 3 times (soon to be 4), and I have always felt very supported and like my line manager cheers me on. I also live in an area where hurricane Florence really impacted us a few years back. The way PPD supported us during that time is was a testament to me about how much they really care about us, and I really appreciated all the ways they tried to help us during that time. I couldn't ask for a better company!
Cons
As with any job, busy times can be stressful, but I have never felt like I wasn't supported, and my managers have always tried to make sure I had everything I needed and wasn't feeling overwhelmed.

- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Flexibility to work from home, good opportunity for growth & learning and super supportive Manager and team mates. You can never stop learning at PPD. And the managers always encourage their team members to take up new challenges and work on personal/professional goals and growth, while also focusing on fun team building activities as well as additional employee well being programs organised by the company.
Cons
Payscale slightly on the lower side as compared to other CROs and even though the company focuses on work life balance, there really isn't much due to the amount of workload during the working days - sometimes needing to extend time beyond the standard 8 hours. However, the company strongly encourages taking time off and gives enough leaves to be utilized.
