Pros

Working at a high pace, high energy, can only occur in a well-oiled machine. PPD certainly can give you the structure and clear Roles and Responsibilities, communication path etc. As leader in the CRO Pharma domain they are investing in their employees on different levels. You feel part of the PPD family.

Cons

Being your own master of time management is crucial for being a project lead for fully outsourced studies working with a global team. If you know your stuff, and you found the correct function that fits your profile, this is a great company to start in amidst the high pressure on Covid studies. As the train is moving fast, one needs to be quite strict in saying what you can do, know how to do or identify what is a stretch - very quickly.

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)
