Pros

It's a pay check. The location of the facility is in close proximity to my home.

Cons

The workloads and expectation to provide quality work is so off base. You cannot produce quality if you are so overwhelmed with no sight of relief until you are placed on a PIP ( Personal Improvement Plan). By then management has beaten you down so much that you start looking for employment elsewhere because the company just isn't promoting from within like they should. The benefits could be better, especially when it comes to the cost per paycheck for the family plan. Its quite a lot.

Pros

Well trained managers that empower you, truly listen to you, and only do well if YOU do well/ they provide resources and definitely offer development opportunities to those who want them AND have demonstrated they can maintain their scoped, regular duties at a high level of quality while working on special development projects Also unlimited RTO in US

Cons

no bonuses and too much focus/emphasis on how many years with *Parexel*, as opposed to how many years total you have been in the industry (ex doing site management at another CRO or Sponsor group )
