Pros

I work with a really great group of people. Managers are supportive, and want you to succeed. Benefits are also good.

Cons

Too much work. The workload is so high, consistently, that burnout is inevitable. It takes certain kinds of people to handle that, and the rest just end up leaving. I'd advise against working for PPD if you cannot handle high stress and time sensitive heavy workloads. Otherwise, it can be a great learning experience.

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)
