Pros

There are some great people in Clin Ops and Data Management. I never thought I would leave.

Cons

All the great teams in the world cannot make up for hiring shortages, which force staff to cover much more than the 'official' 1.0 FTE . Experienced CRAs get placed on too many protocols with competing deadlines, sites are switched frequently and burn - out is a given.

Really great manager. Remote work major plus. No micro management. Great pay

Cons

Annual salary increase this year isn't until September which is odd.

Pros

Great benefits including PTO, health care and other benefits.

Cons

Very much a brother-in-law feel when it comes to promotions and praise. If you aren't in the cool club, you will be shunned and left out. Management also makes business decisions without understanding the niche part of the various industries.
