Pros

Lower management and staff have good relationships as they appear to have trauma bonded over the horrible treatment by upper management and CEO.

Cons

The start pay and benefits are laughable and the CEO is running the company like an autocracy and disregards any constructive feedback from even the department directors and upper managements. His quarterly staff speeches are extremely insulting and dismissive and after each one more and more people update their resumes and seek employment elsewhere. Managers are increasingly frustrated with the micromanaging style of the CEO and their existence is only to soften the blow of the CEO irrational and chaotic leadership on lower level staff but overall they have no major say in any decisions of where the company is headed. They hire college graduates with very low salaries and expect them to replace highly talented and experienced workers that left out of frustration and they think they are reducing their costs this way but they would pay dearly for all the mistakes that the inexperienced new hires make. With WFH out the window, this place is going downhill fast. I don't want to be here when it hits the rock bottom.

With regard to pay, we review our compensation and benefits regularly to ensure we are competitive within the industry and geographically. We also pride ourselves in offering opportunities to individuals early in their career giving them proper training to grow within the industry and in their career. Contrary to your comment regarding WFH being eliminated, this is inaccurate. We have made recent changes to our remote work policy in support of our culture of in-office collaboration, while still providing opportunities for associates to work from home when personal flexibility is needed. Every employee has different needs, and it is unrealistic to think we can meet all of them. However, we always try our best to make every employee feel valued and satisfied in their position. Lastly, Medpace does not promote or tolerate a culture of fear, intimidation, or bullying, therefore we recommend that you escalate these concerns to your line manager or HR Representative. Your candid feedback is appreciated, although our perceptions differ. We recognize that Medpace is not a fit for everyone.
