Pros

Like the opportunities, and the people in leadership at the line manager levels.

Cons

- not quite as people-foused as upper management wants to advertise. - Very high turnover rate in the industry, but we could fix that since everyone I know leaves because of higher pay elsewhere. However, Syneos does not pay current employees what they pay new ones, so naturally, there is constant churn. It seems unlikely to be cheaper to retrain over and over as opposed to increasing individual pay to ACTUAL market pay rates.

Pros

None that I can think of.

Cons

Low salary. Terrible management. No career progression. Basically squeezed you dry with long working hours with 0 benefits or even care from your team. Just don't join this company. They are getting worse and when their financial hit rock bottom they finally realized their ego is larger than their actual revenue. Now theyre seeling off to private equity xD let's see how it ends
