Pros

PPD is a very strong and growing company. They are well poised to continue to gain market share in an industry that will continue to grow. Many positions give you the flexibility to work at the office or from home

Cons

In BD there is a lot of travel. People at PPD put in a ton of hours and that is just the expected. I believe it is standard in the industry

Monitoring Clinical Studies

Pros

Enjoyable and Interesting clinical trial monitoring work with challenging problems requiring troubleshooting and high level organizational skills. Regional home office based position with travel ~ 80% time.

Cons

Management has no clue who you are as a CRA, the turn-over rate is atrocious due to the burn out stress and the clinical team never discusses these issues, no work/life balance as travel, travel, travel is the mantra here.
