Pros

I was initially excited by the concept of Lightship: bringing the decades-old clinical research experience into modern day, and I have not been disappointed. CROs and Pharmaceutical firms have been talking about "virtual trials" for years, but what Lightship is currently building, with their "Direct-to-Patient" research model, is some of the most innovative technology the industry has seen. If you're excited about the prospect of bringing clinical research to the masses and accelerating drug development timelines, Lightship is the place to help make it happen.

Cons

Largely remote, flexible work environment isn't for everyone. If you're a person who requires oversight or thrives under bureaucracy an early stage company, like Lightship, could be a bad fit.
