Pros

The people I work with are fantastic, but we all see how bad this company has become since the merger. Leadership does not care about employees, just about revenues.

Cons

For a multi-billion dollar company, pay decent wages. For a health company, provide good benefits to your employees. You cannot even manage to retain or attract people with the way you treat employees.

Great Pros but detrimental Cons.

Pros

Work-life balance. Respectable hours. Ownership over projects. The opportunity to contribute to the life of a project exists.

Cons

Work can sometimes feel siloed. Support systems rarely exist. Unfortunately, there aren't that many subject matter experts in any given department. The ones that do exist are tasked out or are too busy to help. Although the opportunity to contribute to projects exists it's sometimes looked at with little weight meaning if a manager thinks it's bad idea they will dismiss your idea. There is also a very real and very apparent toxic work environment that promotes those incapable of performing their job. Sometimes promotions come to those in a nepotistic way. Also, this toxic culture is overwhelmingly in favor of personal relationships. If you aren't a friend or casually a work acquaintance then you can have zero expectations of advancement.

Pros

- great staff who genuinely get along and work together in an impressionable way.

Cons

- after the merger, the company manipulated the employees into thinking that they were planning on making Syneos Toronto a stronger footing for the company. Low and behold, a year later they close down their headquarters. Not to mention, 6 months of that time there were no studies being held at the location. Absolutely horrendous and unethical leadership. In fact, the made the research associates at the Toronto location train their NEW research facility in Miami... to get away with employment logistics in the United States, they told them to state that they were there for “meetings”. Absolutely ridiculous way of conducting business.
