Pros

One of the top CROs worldwide. Pretty much all therapeutic areas.

Cons

High stess level as a CRA. All that counts is achiving your metrics goals! Honestly the visit goal is crazy. Kiss your personal life bye-bye. Salary is rather low in the industry. Turnover rate is extremely high in the CRA area.

Pros

Great company culture, excellent team support, fantastic management at all levels. I especially value the training initiatives that help in the day to day. This is a great place to build skills, especially in AI. Work life balance is emphasized and encouraged.

Cons

It can feel a bit like being a cog in the wheel at times, although good ideas do get the attention of management. Workload can be unrelenting around EOQ. Process "improvement" initiatives are constant, poorly announced, and often make things worse. Raises and bonuses are meager and do not keep up with inflation/market value.
