Pros
Remote work, typical US holidays off, 20 days PTO. Probably fine if you're just getting into the field, decent starting point.
Cons
Layoffs. Promotional freeze (originally in IHCRA program and most IHCRAs are still waiting after 1.5-2 years, if they haven't left already). 2 years with no promotion, only a lateral move (even though the site activation associate position involves much more work/stress), and a performance-based merit increase, which varies depending on how well the company performs. Second performance ranking was higher than the first and got less of an increase. No bonuses. No "off-cycle" promotions allowed - can only happen during the annual performance review period. Salaries are lower than other companies. A lot of us got the crappy end of the stick, were supposed to be making much more had CRA promotions occurred, and they don't care. "It's just business". New hires that have joined the "Site Activation Initiative", have joined as SSUA II so most likely, they are making more money, even though the hires I have interacted with do not have study start-up/site activation experience. Any SSUA II openings I have seen internally were in other countries. Made to train those that are coming in as SSUA II.
