Pros

Team members are great people who genuinely care about their respective jobs, CRAs have non-study line manager to provide support

Cons

Too much work, not enough support provided to clinical teams. Cross-functional tasks assigned to CRAs who do not have time or support to accomplish them. Unrealistic work expectations vs FTE allocations, outdated systems

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.
