Pros

I got paid (below industry standard) and was not on welfare. I had some great co-workers, all have left or are miserable and looking for a better opportunity.

Cons

Insane workload, no work/life balance. Low pay for industry. Benefits slashed with merger. Severe lack of transparency. Rules do not apply to all. High turnover at all levels. New hire's not trained, a sink or swim on boarding process. Micro-management is the norm. Lack of collaboration between departments. Upper level management has little clue what those "under" them do - yes, you are made to feel subordinate and inferior. Low morale.

Pros

It used to be the employees but most of the good ones are gone now.

Cons

When the previous executives and upper level VPs left after the merger occurred this place went downhill quick. The expectations are extremely high yet the executives don’t want to hear why things can’t happen. You are expected to make something out of nothing at Syneos. When you explain why things didn’t go as planned it’s always just an “excuse” when in most cases it’s reality and legitimate things are impeding ones ability to get something done. The culture completely sucks. It’s used to be that people there seemed to have some type of integrity and genuinely cared about the employees. When the previous executives left that all changed. The culture changed where everything gets escalated if you don’t respond to address something immediately even if you decide to take off a day, which was few and far between. There is also a good ol boys club forming now and people being brought in who are completely incompetent. Changes are being made which are completely contradictory to how a publicly traded company should operate. This all has led to this company to being so dreadful to work for that people are leaving in droves. I would give this place a zero if I could.

Pros

Flexible start time. There are no other pros as this is not a good company to work for.

Cons

No work life balance, raises/promotions baiscally non existent, employees treated like cheap expendables. No training and no process standardization more than a year after merger.
