Pros

Syneos rewarded reasonably, although this was changing at the point of me leaving. Physical environments were nice. Business unit teams (outside of HR) were really great people

Cons

The culture within the HR function is very very unhealthy and having taken some time to reflect after leaving (and heal) I feel it is important to share the experience. The behavior experienced from the very top of the HR function is negative, intimidating and demotivating. My mental health was affected and I did not realise how much until I left. Once out, I was able to understand and process this experience as the worst in my working life. Take care in considering joining HR here.

Pros

You are never bored due to constant work

Cons

Lab is run horribly. Sample Management never sees promotions. Starting salary is good and then you’re trapped in quicksand. I was graded as the highest possible rating for my merit increase and got a $0.26 hourly increase. The company doesn’t care about everyone working on the back end of studies.
