Pros

salary, bonuses, occasional raises and benefits were some really great pros. a lot of opportunity to move within the company to different positions.

Cons

lack of training and feedback. You were lucky if you had a manager that took time to really train you and make sure you were on track.

Pros

The employees are great to work with. Supportive culture amongst teams. Benefits are good.

Cons

Much like most of this industry, Allocations are never realistic for your study duties. Be prepared to work extremely hard and have a burnout or two. We all expect to work for our wages but you really have to be intentional to set boundaries and enforce them. Or work/life balance will not exist - even though it’s heavily promoted. But the reality is that you are just more often than not over allocated. Internal application process needs some work. Trying to move between roles can be difficult and you can be left hanging for a long time just waiting on a response to an application.

Pros

PPD seems like they have it all figured out. They want to ensure that employees have balanced lives and want to avoid burn out. My previous employer rewarded us with more work, when PPD rewards us with time off and well deserved breaks when we need them most. PPD seems to understand the work-life balance and I sincerely appreciate them and I should've made the change 10 years ago!

Cons

Should have trusted my gut and changed earlier!
