Pros

This company does not do anything well.

Cons

The rules and expectations are constantly changing without any form of notice. They do not take feedback and make changes on it. They harp on how important it is to meet our bottom lines but they have people who have never worked in clinical research setting the numbers in our contracts that are unreasonable and half of the time don't even make sense mathematically. The company as a whole does not meet its numbers at any site and makes the issue about us instead of the people who are making unobtainable goals. They constantly promise promotions and raises but they take months and months to actually get implemented if they ever even do. The higher ups are extremely out of touch with what is going on and show no interest in figuring out how to help our sites meet recruitment numbers besides telling us to work more. Don't work for them.

First and foremost, we are concerned to learn about the frustrations you have encountered. We acknowledge there have been times when unexpected changes were made to accommodate growth and understand how that could result in such challenges. As this is not indicative of the employee experience we aim to provide, we also recognize this feedback as an opportunity to reflect on the importance of clear, timely communication. Moving forward, we are striving to provide streamlined communications with clarity around when changes will occur, why they are necessary, and how they will produce a positive impact. We are also developing processes to better implement new initiatives by executing them in a timely manner. Knowing there will be times that we must adapt to encourage growth, we will strive to provide the appropriate change management for such transitions. We truly appreciate this feedback and have shared it with senior leadership. Our site operations staff make our mission of reaching more patients and advancing clinical research possible; therefore, feedback of this nature is crucial to change. We welcome open dialogue if there are specific challenges or details you would like to discuss further, in which case you are encouraged to contact the HR team at HR@javararesearch.com.

Pros

Great benefits, great people, great mission. They gave equal opportunity to all ages and did discriminate against recent grads. They gave so many fresh graduates the opportunity to get their feet wet in the career of research

Cons

overturn in management made transitions of teams difficult and for the time work-life balance was not great but then again, any job during the pandemic was difficult.
