welcome to the loony-bin - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso TKL Research

Nothing I really enjoyed my time working there. Met many freat people.

Pay, hours alot of overtime and great coworkers.

Interesting work from day to day. Can be good if you want to get your feet wet in clinical research.

Management is poor, nurses here are not respected, bare minimum training provided, clinical coordinators are not all on the same page (creating confusion for staff and subjects alike), and drama runs rampant (you will receive many vague emails from higher ups regarding random drama between other colleagues, making threats in order to get everyone to behave). Another word on the drama aspect - it is clearly not properly addressed, as when I was there it never actually was resolved. Among it all, you always had this one particular person who was basically the “puppet master”, stirring the pot, spreading rumors, particularly about certain supervisors. Talk about toxic. Priorities at this place when I was there were not at all where they should have been. Also, they would often pressure us to try and push subjects to agree to participate in a study, in order to fill as many studies as possible. Some of the clinical coordinators would get angry if all of the studies weren’t filling up. The purpose of informed consent is to let the possible “subject” make their own educated decision about participating in a research study. Not to try and coerce them into it. That just isn’t right, nor is it ethical.
