Overall satisfied but company needs to restart promotions ASAP

Central monitor

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I love my line manager and teams/colleagues are really great here. Work/life balance is a priority to the central monitoring team and I feel like I am listened to when I have any concerns.

Cons

I am praised for my high achievements every time I speak with my Line Manager but when it comes to promotions or annual review/raises I am told I am "meeting the expectations" and don't feel I am truly valued like they say. If promotions don't resume and raises reflected in my work achievements, I will be sadly searching for a new company in the next year.

Cons

Work life balance Inconsistent management High attrition rate but the why is not addressed and instead you are asked to refocus on all the work that you have to do Culture can be negative and not supportive Gaps in integrity exist amongst some leaders Consulting lacks connection to larger Syneos organization Inappropriate level frustration dumped on consultant level team members, often borderline abusive
