Pros

Worked with some terrific people. Unfortunately the terrific people aren’t valued and end up leaving.

Cons

Workload is unbalanced. Lacking tools to effectively and efficiently do our job. In constant fear of getting laid off. Focus on tech and apps, but not the quality of the data feeding into these apps. Biggest gripe is promotions, took a year for the promotion. There are no opportunities for growth and advancement with this company. Additional responsibilities are constantly added to positions, with no additional compensation yet IMS CEO is making more than other health company CEOs, despite profit losses.

Pros

Great pay initially, especially after negotiating. People are very smart and willing to meet for networking and learning opportunities. Flexibility and work life balance is by far the best perk - especially since many roles are fully remote.

Cons

Merit raises have been subpar the last 4 years and do not come close to keeping with inflation, consistently the company cites great EBITDA growth but that never is shown in bonuses nor merit raises despite receiving “exceeds expectations” ratings. Parental leave is a nominal. Very easy to get “lost in the sauce” of such a large company.
