      Sr. CRA II - Senior CRA II PPD Employee Review

      Pros

      Good line manager. Good health benefits (low premium, no deductible).

      Cons

      Expect CRAs to travel more (10-12 days on-site) and work more (lengthy MVRs 20+ pages with highly detailed annotated report, in a CTMS system) than other CROs. Atmosphere is negative and discouraging for CRAs. Morale is bad. Even lateral career moves for CRAs are discouraged. Some team and project management employs a 'pins and needles' attitude about how pleased the sponsor may be with CRA and CRO performance. Micromanaging but 'green' Team Manager.

      Pros

      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)
