Pros

Friendly atmosphere accross the company Employees well informed about all important matters by the most Senior Management Salary package at the top when compared with other CROs

Cons

Promotions not clear. It takes a long time to get promoted in comparison with other CROs. Does not really seem the promotions would be related to performance. People overworked. Company growing too quickly and the quality seems to not mach the speed of the growth at all. Lack of F2F training.

Pros

Strong Leadership, Fair/Average compensation, Thrive Program (company strives to keep you employeed as Sponsor reallocations occur)

Cons

HR is very hands off. It is very difficult to speak to anyone. Not simple to call and ask a question. Everything has to go through a portal. This is challenging when there is time sensitive needs. They make it work but in my opinion, this is a 'con'.
