Pros

The best reason to work there was the mission of Clinical Research. It was a very interesting job. I think clinical research is very important because it is how new products get sent to the FDA for approval and put on the market.

Cons

People are very back stabbing and two faced. The communication from upper management was not good. The turn over rate is extremely high which made moral low. Management does not listen to complaints - they make excuses and turn blame elsewhere.

Pros

The people who work at Icon are great people who get the job done. People are friendly and very helpful when you are new to teh area. They are organized and have very strict ways of dealing with organizational things. Many people have been tehre for a very long time and enjoy working for the company just like me. They train you on their systems- which are very good.

Cons

commute to location is not desirable. The traffic is awful going into Philadelphia but i don't want to sell my house to make the move just for the job because it is a horrible housing market.
