Pros
• Easy career progression: moving from CTA to higher roles can happen very quickly (several achieved this in six months) • Straightforward work that does not require heavy mental effort, leaving enough time and energy after work for personal life • Clear working hours — once your time is done, you can leave without pressure to stay late • Quite a bit of flexibility regarding working hours, since there are very few meetings tying you down
Cons
• The role of CTA was made unnecessarily unattractive by poor leadership, particularly under the Clinical Trial Coordinator • Unprofessional behavior from the Clinical Trial Coordinator, including gossiping about colleagues and not keeping confidentiality regarding health, HR and personal matters • Feedback was neither sought nor valued, leaving no room for improvement or employee development • Chaotic, disorganized environment with little structure or vision • Management style created a workplace where even those who enjoy the nature of the job end up wanting to leave
