Vantaggi

When I worked there, the free lunches were a huge benefit. I have not worked at another company that offers this before or since, and it was one of the main talking points during my interview process. I also appreciated the provided lactation rooms and complimentary menstrual hygiene products. At the time of my employment, there were many women in senior positions throughout the company. Medpace also regularly threw parties on campus, complete with food trucks, free beer, and some activities. The white elephant gift exchange was also a fun event I looked forward to every year. I received many freebies. Best personality for this company: someone who is highly competitive and does not need social interaction to thrive.

Svantaggi

Employee fraternization was not exactly encouraged during my time of employment. Quiet zone signs were posted throughout the buildings, which can be great for some employees and terrible for others. It felt like collaboration was sometimes discouraged. The archaic "Rank and Yank" practice that terminates the lowest ranked individuals at the end of every fiscal year does nothing for morale, creates an unnecessarily hyper competitive environment, does not inspire loyalty, and makes you constantly question your job security, even if you are meeting or exceeding expectations. Relatedly, COVID gave Medpace the opportunity to layoff hundreds of employees and immediately hire other talent in droves.

Vantaggi

Coworkers are willing to help you and answer questions.

Svantaggi

Abysmal pay for industry standards. Work will be piled on continuously. More and more studies. Forced to present impossible timelines. And then you have to speak to why these timelines were not met after the fact when it's outside of your control. Travel expectations thrown at you with a couple days notice. CEO micromanages the entire company. They track when you badge in and badge out of the building. You have to badge out to exit. Upper management throws you under the bus in front of sponsor despite agreeing with you in prep call and telling you they will have your back. People here work crazy long hours late into the evening and think it's normal.
