Pros

Line manager is great and colleagues are awesome. Training is thorough. Benefits are decent.

Cons

Systems aren't streamlined. Known "problem" employees are allowed to stay and bully team members creating a hostile working environment. SOPs aren't followed nor amended for requests that are being made.

Pros

The office is nice but

Cons

Bullying is very bad in this place. If you don’t suck up to certain people they will make your life hell at work.

Pros

-flexible work-schedule (esp. if per-diem). work stays at work -decent starting pay for the difficulty of the work (17/hr). good pay differentials for evenings and holidays. - some people are decent (co-workers and participants alike)

Cons

- this place becomes small so quickly -- I personally see so little room for growth. unless you've dreamt of becoming a data manager, or someone who micromanages other- this whole place really isn't that gratifying. - THIS IS THE JOB: you do procedures that are assigned to you (mainly taking blood pressures and ECG's), YOU DON'T THINK AT ALL! you simply follow procedures. you don't ask questions, you just do as your told - wait for 8hrs to be over by meandering around a far too small break room, and repeat indefinitely (while trying to keep vestiges of any enthusiasm or soul).
