Pros

Stable company, solid. Great training (probably the best among the industry) great staff, great foundations to promote education among its employees. This is a conservative company that focus on the employee's well being and managers are conscientious about this.

Cons

I would say the only downside is the compensation. Since they prepare the employee so good for their jobs and look for really capable people to perform it I would say that the compensation should be a little bit better.

Pros

PPD will hire people fresh out of college unlike most companies giving them the opportunity to gain valuable experience. You are allowed to train on so many different assays.

Cons

The vaccine lab tends to micromanage a lot more so than the main lab.
