Pros

friendly environment amongst peers; above-average salary

Cons

I had a very bad line manager, who was not interested in my development and only cared about the project metrics. More generally, the company brags about their values, but they don't really practice them. On the technical side, they still use very old and obsolete systems that can't keep up with the advancement of the clinical research industry.

Pros

Very little pros to working here other than it's very easy to stay under the radar. The work load is light.

Cons

Very little room for growth, eventually got laid off because ICON over hired too many CRAs it could handle. The CRA bridge program was supposed to be only 3-6 months but people we not able to promote despite being there for 2+ years
