Pros

Amazing colleagues, flexible work arrangements. Organizational culture is said to be 'with Heart' and I believe this to be true with respect to patient centricity and customer satisfaction. Career development opportunities are fairly good.

Cons

Parexel does not demonstrate 'Heart' for their frontline employees yet they demand that they go the extra mile, especially now that the company is going through rapid growth

Pros

Competitive salary, benefits and decent online training.

Cons

Do not promote within and keep you at your current position if you are doing over the expected work while others who don't do over the expected work and have connections get promoted.

Pros

There are many truly dedicated colleagues that work long hours trying to make things work

Cons

They recently releases almost all the contract CRAs despite most studies not fully staffed for months Recent downsizing on Project Management despite lack of staff to take on current studies Staff pulled mid study without notice to fill urgent shortages on other studies (they keep taking from Peter to pay Paul)
