Pros

Good pay. Good benefits. Cash per diem.

Cons

Overworked. No care about burnout. No room for bonuses if not exceeding days onsite 12/mo. No help from management on onboarding or help on how to use various outdated softwares. IT and HR tickets take days to complete, sometimes without resolution because their metrics are hurt by open tickets. Upper management pushes diversity lines but do not see any room to grow if you're colored. More Caucasian men in management and executive than women or colored people. Just seems like a bad environment for those of color, as you get comments on slow work, less quality. Even though metrics show otherwise. Just another CRO like all the others. No room to grow if you have melanin.

Pros

There were no pros that I know of.

Cons

The company would set the maximum hours allowed on a specific publication project, and that cap was always insufficient, so the freelancer would be expected to work for free, despite scope creep. Also, timelines were unreasonably short. Poor communication with management meant things took longer than they should have. I left after one project.
