Unprofessional and Toxic - Scientific Writer PPD Employee Review

Pros

Flexible hours and remote work capabilities

Cons

If a married couple working in the same department with one as supervisor isn’t nepotism, I don’t know what is. Supervisor’s “work husband” was promoted after a year with less skills and training than other female employees. Toxic coworkers who bullied for their own rise and were reported for it received promotions. In the reorganization, two supervisors were fired without notifying the staff for an entire day or detailing who they report to or if they still had a job. My only regret was not leaving sooner when I saw the first red flags.

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)
