Pros

ICON has great benefits for women, ie short term disability, and the work culture was inclusive.

Cons

For a local laboratory to pay was low comparied to laboratories in the major city. And because it is a global company employees can be viewed as assets/numbers.

Pros

The team was collaborative, and colleagues were approachable and helpful.

Cons

The work environment feels toxic, with a very poor work–life balance. Annual salary increases are either non-existent or minimal (around 0–2%), and bonuses are occasional rather than guaranteed.
