Pros

Paycheck. It’s a job not a career. If you are seasoned clinical researcher look elsewhere.

Cons

Poor culture: CRAs are not valued, under appreciated, disrespected, micromanaged, and blamed for all issues. Focus is on revenue and not GCP. Management is not supportive and in-experiences.

Pros

The Flexibility and work/life balance.

Cons

Don't bother applying for internal positions now that the merger has occurred. No matter how good a fit you are you WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED. Your fate is no longer in the hands of the hiring managers. Talent Acquisition determines if your resume is passed on. TA is looking EXTERNALLY only because we have a serious deficit of resources.

Pros

There are no pros to exploiting humans.

Cons

CEO is invisible to employees. Lack of transparency from new owners. Non-existent work-life balance. Toxic long term employees who are ruthless, play favoritism, act self-serving, and are dishonest. The discretionary PTO is laughable. The workload is tremendously heavy. It is impossible to take PTO. Working 65/hours week is standard. Requests for project support are ignored (or worse, you are told that you are the problem, not the workload. Nope. It is 100% related to layoffs and redistribution of work). The new ownership turned a demanding CRO environment into a merciless workplace with increased in-fighting, and decrease in quality. Prediction: repeat business will drastically decline. More lay-offs. Private equity firms dump company. Then, on the way out the c-suite makes big $$$$ on the backs of the operational teams who worked very long and stressful hours to deliver for the clients.
