Pros

The PEOPLE!! - Those who work at this office are phenomenal. They are the backbone and face of the company. Depending on who you report to (line manger, director, PM) your work/life balance may be the only saving grace to this company .

Cons

Lack of decision making by upper management. Willing to let go of experienced personel to obtain cheaper labor. Lack of communication - yet upper management excels at talking about nothing or in circles yet never addresses a direct question. Micromanagement - badge tracking system (are we in jail?) Employees leaving in droves Company advised only mid managers and higher are going to receive bonus pay. New building that is shiny and pretty but everyone inside of it is miserable.

Pros

Whole week between Christmas and New Years off and paid. Friendly co-workers. Some work from home days if you're lucky. Overall, it's a good company to work for if you're new to the industry.

Cons

Difficult and lengthy process to get promoted. Pay is low compared to other CRO's in the industry. No bonus. Very high turnover rate. Workload can become heavy depending on the time of the year. Management is just mediocre. PTO and benefits weren't spectacular. The INC employee medical plan actually got worse after the merger.
