Vantaggi

Great training program and good opportunity to get into clinical research if you have no previous experience. Lots of great people work here and you can make good connections. Generous paid time off and health benefits.

Svantaggi

Very bad pay, way below market rate. Lots of incompetency and you have to work a lot harder and longer hours because of it. Dysfunctional team dynamics where you can't leave work until the rest of your team no longer needs help. There is always something to do and so you end up spending your whole life at work because some team members are happy to drag out their work and work inefficiently so that they can get paid overtime. The problem with this is that the efficient workers have to pay the price for lazy team members. Some Team Leaders are very competent and others are terrible which reflects poorly on upper management for not having enough insight and skill in choosing correct candidates to fill these roles. Thus, ego gets in the way of admitting fault in poor Team Leader choices which isn't helpful to improve teams and business. Subjects are treated with indignation and disrespect by most team members and are victims of late pay checks and bureaucratic as well as clinical mishaps. The Project Managers with exception of two are completely and shamefully incompetent. They are the laziest of all PPD employees. They are the first to get complacent and too comfortable in their positions and start to slack off. Say goodbye to your life outside of work because you'll be pulling 15 hour shifts with no appreciation and you might work until midnight one night and be scheduled to come in a 6am the next morning. Team Leaders are bad schedulers and do not care a great deal about their teams. My TL once demanded me to drive into work at 5:30am one morning against the weather advisory board due to severe icy road conditions. That morning there were hundreds of car accidents. I risked my life due to a crazy TL with no care about the safety of her team members.

Vantaggi

Compensation and bonus has been available through ebbs and flows of business. Hard work is typically seen and rewarded.

7 line managers in 10 years (through one role change) Company restructures often. You must be willing to adapt and thrive in constant change.
