Pros
Most people were really nice people working in a difficult situation. If you are still in college or have some kind of history that makes finding work difficult, this might be a good place to bolster your resume for a time as it looks good on paper.
Cons
I hate to write a negative review, but I feel I was somewhat "tricked" into joining on just out of school, and I would like to warn other naive people like myself that this is a bad opportunity. Although the field is strange (CRO for dietary supplements) I thought it was a legitimate job with a salary and benefits and I agreed to join after they made a better salary offer (the first offer was very very low, but after refusing they offered a low but acceptable salary). I found (by looking at Yelp actually) that Medicus is associated with another company who has been failing to pay their study group participants, so before I joined I called to ask if this was affecting payroll and was told by two people that it was not. I later found that this was at least misleading (if not an untruth) and the company cannot support their payroll in a way that directly affects employees. Here are the problems I had getting paid: - I stayed on for approximately 2 months and I was paid late (10 to 14 days late if I recall) on every single paycheck (which were due twice a month) - About 10 employees told me "this is how it is", and late payment was completely routine although highly resented - After resigning, my final check bounced and I had to contact them several times to get the money wired to my account. They did deliver this eventually, but the process of mailing, receiving, depositing, bouncing etc took about a month. - Although "health benefits" were offered in my cover letter, health coverage for the company had lapsed and nobody was covered for nearly the whole time I was there. When I asked for updates about my benefits, I was put off again and again until I had left, leaving a 2 month gap in my coverage.
