Pros

Good health benefits, stress management programs, diet programs, smoking cessation programs. Ability to have a paid day off in exchange for voluntary work day Nice people Excellent Salary

Cons

Management is lost at sea and can't change course. Quintiles has now reached a size that is not easy to change course. The overburdening SOPs combined with the pervasive "that's not my job" attitude is slowly chipping away at what was once an exciting place to work. Don't expect a personal life when working for Quintiles. There is no such thing as a vacation. They would like everyone to believe that they are there for patients and the human factor is important as are their employees, in the end it all comes down to the almighty $. Something that has only been exaggerated since Tom took the reins. Employee engagement continues to decline. Rumor has it there is a hiring freeze and lay-offs are silently happening due to the pending merger with IMS.

Pros

Remote work option is nice to have

Cons

Zero support from management, with employee development and team concerns often taking a back seat to other priorities. Morale continues to go downhill, and several colleagues exploring opportunities elsewhere or leaving the organization already. The culture is challenging, particularly around providing candid feedback, as employees often are tracker down and face negative repercussions and retaliations. Career advancement depends more on aligning with leadership preferences than on merit and performance. Would not recommend this company to those seeking a supportive environment with transparent growth opportunities. Overall, the culture is political and difficult to navigate.
