Pros

They are not unethical in clinical trial conduct.

Cons

This entire company has a business model based on understaffing and demanding insane work hours. Management takes pride in a macho attitude of rudeness and disregard for creating a humane place to work. I have worked in 3 different CROs and PPD has an utterly miserable workforce.

Pros

Provided health insurance. Good coworkers Good exposure to team at client site If you have a good technical lead, the job can be great!

Cons

You have 2 bosses (Technical lead from Client Site) and your PPD boss. PPD Boss does not know what is going on If you have a bad technical lead, your life can be miserable. Pay is low No protection from abusive technical lead (coworkers on same team can have a drastically different experience)
