Pros

Remote work is available for some.

Cons

-Much lower pay versus industry standard. -Little upward movement or promotions for many due to outsourcing. -Tiny bonus and merit increases that don't get anywhere near the rate of inflation. -Long-time employees are not valued resulting in low morale and eventual exit. -Large increase in outsourcing to save money which is resulting in a massive study quality decrease. -Project Team members are all burnt out and frustrated. -Upper Management has focused more on department revenue than quality of the studies being conducted. -Processes that are implemented are redundant and waste more time than they save. -Poor work/life balance.

Pros

Remote work option is nice to have

Cons

Zero support from management, with employee development and team concerns often taking a back seat to other priorities. Morale continues to go downhill, and several colleagues exploring opportunities elsewhere or leaving the organization already. The culture is challenging, particularly around providing candid feedback, as employees often are tracker down and face negative repercussions and retaliations. Career advancement depends more on aligning with leadership preferences than on merit and performance. Would not recommend this company to those seeking a supportive environment with transparent growth opportunities. Overall, the culture is political and difficult to navigate.
