Pros

3.0% 401k match. The CEO is a very nice person, outside of the workplace.

Cons

Many promises made by management which never came to light. CEO is a micromanager with a complex. Staff turnover rate is over 50%; average employment at Frestedt lasts less than 13months; most were let go under questionable circumstances and have resulted in legal discussions. Employees are often belittled and berated to a level comparable to that of emotional terrorism. You will be asked for your opinion, and then scolded for it. No benefits beyond a fully vested 401k; very little vacation and many hoops are in place to jump through before you can use it. Management sets impossible deadlines for staff that are inexperienced and lack any formal training. If the ratings on this website could be fractional I'd select less than 1.

Pros

Exposure to a variety of client projects.

Cons

Management is poor, not well structured and not professional. The negative emotional states of the management are readily felt by the employees. Difficult to voice concern, advice and ideas. Many people leave within a year. Very little and poor feedback and training provided. Benefit package is lacking. There is no work life balance. Only work here if you enjoy being micromanaged.

Pros

Working at Frestedt Inc was challenging and fulfilling. The work really pushed me out of my comfort zone, leading me to learn a lot about clinical trials, regulations, and new drugs and devices. It's a great place for anyone looking to gain specialized knowledge and experience in the field. Joy Frestedt is well-connected and brings her employees into various projects with the highest level of drugs and device manufacturers.

Cons

Not a place for people who don't want a challenge or to work hard.
