Great company to start out at. Training is considered one of the best and worth it if you pay attention and have time. - Senior Clinical Research Associate PPD Employee Review
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)
