Pros

You can more or less set up your own schedule and there are incentives for doing extra work.

Cons

The only real downside is the pay but PPD is a great place to start out and the environments much better than its competitors.

Pros

Provided health insurance. Good coworkers Good exposure to team at client site If you have a good technical lead, the job can be great!

Cons

You have 2 bosses (Technical lead from Client Site) and your PPD boss. PPD Boss does not know what is going on If you have a bad technical lead, your life can be miserable. Pay is low No protection from abusive technical lead (coworkers on same team can have a drastically different experience)
