Vantaggi

- compensation and benefits are in line with industry (maybe slightly better) - some very good people in the working lines - global company - some interesting projects

Svantaggi

- management is completely oppressive with key leadership lacking basic managerial skills - work life balance is not a priority for management - financial systems are horrible, leading to labor intensive manual activities and unhappy clients - quality systems are poor and project management fundamentals are not understood by management who are demanding project management excellence - management sees all project issues/failures as a function of poor project management with a "customer is always right" mentality rather than supporting project leadership when client fail to meet contractual agreements - performance measures changed on the fly and there is little structure and opportunity for growth of personal skills - common practice to bait and switch clients on resources and poor service after the "sale" from management whose focus tends to hover on top line revenue and sales versus bottom line profitability...simply not honest brokers with clients at point of sale - absolutely no long term vision...living quarter - to -quarter at the expense of the next quarter and the resources tasked with delivering often oversold, under-budgeted and poorly communicated service agreements - high turnover rate with a large population "looking" - many new employees are recognizing the cons and moving on quickly could go on and on...

Vantaggi

A few nice people. That's it.

Svantaggi

"With Heart" is a joke. This company does not care about its employees. Those that have been there for a number of years seem to be brainwashed into thinking this culture is normal and that this company cares about them. Parexel likes to make employees feel like they are just lucky to be there. Senior Leadership lacks management and people skills and are quick to throw employees under the bus to protect themselves. Probably because for many of them this is the only company they've ever worked for. This accounts for the high school clique-like culture. The workload is ridiculous for the pay and expectations are constantly shifting. The only thing Parexel cares about is money. The company is overloaded with ridiculous metrics. It's practically all you will have time to do. The most miserable place I've ever worked.
