Vantaggi

CRG has some flexibility with the work hours. You may have a typical time you go in but can come in at other times as long as it falls within your shift period (i.e. normally clock in at 8am but can come in at 7am or 9am as well). You have the capability working a different shift if approved by your manager. You either work 1st or 2nd shift, with 2nd shift offering a $3 boost on top of the base salary.

Svantaggi

Thermo Fisher has stripped several benefits that made CRG more appealing: ending incentivized overtime, ending PTO carrying over to next calendar year, restricting overall overtime. Promotions are not being approved for deserving employees. There are several employees, at the bench analyst level, who are still awaiting promotions that were on track to approval before a 'promotional freeze' hit the company, Some people have been waiting for at least a year to get promoted with no word on when promotions will start back up.

Vantaggi

You'll get hands-on experience with regulated lab environments, which is genuinely valuable early in your career. The CRO world gives you transferable knowledge of clinical trial operations that other companies will recognize. If you're self-motivated, there's room to build things on your own. I taught myself new tools and built reporting dashboards for my department because nobody else was going to do it. Tuition reimbursement existed when I started, which was a real benefit.

Svantaggi

Compensation does not match the workload. You will be overworked and underpaid, and when you bring it up, nothing changes. I repeatedly asked leadership to let me take on work that aligned with my career goals and education, but I was always "too busy" with my regular responsibilities for that to happen. They'll happily benefit from your output but won't invest in your growth. The tuition reimbursement policy changed while I was mid-degree, which tells you everything about how they view employee development. Benefits are underwhelming for a company this size, and when I needed them most, they fell short. A workplace injury made it very clear where employees fall on their priority list, and it's well below the bottom line.
