Pros

So desperate for employees they'll pay you. Be prepared to sell your soul.

Cons

Company required employees to take a pay cut during COVID then made an exorbitant amount of money and bought a competitor. Priorities are profits and money with no regard for employees' benefits or work-life balance. Performance metrics are based upon non-sensical metrics that aren't reflective of employees' contributions, Functional area PMs are overworked. Inefficient processes will run you ragged. Procurement is a nightmare to work with.

Pros

Really great manager. Remote work major plus. No micro management. Great pay

Cons

Annual salary increase this year isn't until September which is odd.

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
