Pros

Management is great. It's like a family. They understand family issues and are very accomodating when their employees are in need of assistance - both in and out of work. The company has good training and encourages continuing education regularly.

Cons

The pay could be better, but this is the cost of having been given the opportunity to enter the clinical trial industry. Promotional opportunities are usually good, but the company is affected in economic downturns. They do their best when promotional opportunities are not feasible due to financial concerns and make it a point to continually stay in contact with their employees about the company's status.

Pros

The working environment is casual, which has it's pros and cons.

Cons

The pay is not the best. Also there is very little recognition for the work you do complete. It seems as though you need to threaten to leave in order to get a pay rise or promotion.

Pros

Perceptive Informatics has a good benefits package, friendly employees and is a relaxed place to work. You can normally get time off at short notice.

Cons

Increasingly there is a reliance on paid overtime to complete projects rather than hiring and training enough employees. Too much reliance on outsourcing with some outsourced staff barely able to speak English
