Pros

Its great working with the participants and conducting research.

Cons

The project investigator is an enabler. The project director is an ineffective leader and is incapable of making decisions. Sadly, there is a hierarchy in the office. If you are faculty you are treated with the utmost respect and if you are staff, sorry you are insignificant. There is not "I" in Team. No advancement opportunities or raises.

Pros

Job security throughout budget cuts happening in the public health industry currently. Plenty of PTO and holiday paid leave.

Cons

Constant threats by upper management to "write us up/disciplinary action" for anything. Director is really unfair/disrespectful/condescending to our supervisor and so that trickles down to data coordinators. For example currently there is a threat that we will be "written up" if we do not meet all the competing deadlines. Ive seen sooo people many come and go in this sector over the past 3 years its insane. Its alot of data to manually enter and one must be organized /driven and on top of your game but it gets borring if your not passionate about the cancer trials you are working on.
