Pros

Remote work is available for some.

Cons

-Much lower pay versus industry standard. -Little upward movement or promotions for many due to outsourcing. -Tiny bonus and merit increases that don't get anywhere near the rate of inflation. -Long-time employees are not valued resulting in low morale and eventual exit. -Large increase in outsourcing to save money which is resulting in a massive study quality decrease. -Project Team members are all burnt out and frustrated. -Upper Management has focused more on department revenue than quality of the studies being conducted. -Processes that are implemented are redundant and waste more time than they save. -Poor work/life balance.

Pros

- Great work / life balance, leadership wonderful dependent on team, collaborative coworkers, everyone try to help each other

Cons

- internal processes too long, hard to progress career if you are not loyal to certain leaders, sometimes we get in our own way to service our customers, internal bottlenecks between sales and delivery at times. If you are someone who likes to follow processes this is a good place, if you are someone who thinks outside of the box and pushes the envelope of change for betterment or more efficiency - you could be frustrated
