Pros

I have never worked in a facility where every person was a real Team member. Everyone pulls together and has great respect for one another. I feel completely satisfied and fulfilled when I am at work and finally have sense of belonging. I hope to be here until I can no longer work...retirement :)

Cons

Honestly I have no cons

Pros

Offers a lot of hands on experience. Awesome co-workers!

Cons

They expect you to work on your days off when it’s busy and then they cut your schedule like crazy when it’s slow. It’s really hard to make a living when your paychecks aren’t consistent. Plus the pay is really low for the amount of work you have to do.

Thank you for your response. I was pleased to read that you felt you gained some good experience during your 3 years with Celerion and that you enjoyed working alongside your co-workers. It is unfortunate if you felt that we were not offering promotion opportunities. Year to date we have had more than 50 employees move into different positions across the organization based on their experience. With regard to participants, it is correct that the participants in our studies are very important to Celerion’s success. However, we do expect a level of courtesy and professionalism from them. If any employee feels that they have been mistreated by a participant there are processes in place to ensure these concerns are escalated and investigated. Andrew Stringer - Exec.

Pros

Making the transition from another CRO to Celerion was the best decision I’ve made for my career. Celerion can demand more, the majority of the time I feel like I have an unmatched balance compared to other global CROs. If you work hard and ask for more exposure and responsibility and perform well, it is easy to advance.

Cons

Better training at onboarding. People are well qualified but they need to better understand processes before being thrown to the fire. Yearly raises could be better matched to compete with other CROs

Thank you for your 5 star review. We are delighted that you made the right decision to join Celerion and that you feel that there are ongoing development opportunities. We have recently embarked on a couple of projects targeted at our global, site and departmental onboarding. It is our hope that these projects will address a range of topics including how new employee training is handled. Thank you again for your post. Andrew Stringer – Exec. Dir, Global Human Resources
