Pros

None. This is the worst company I have ever worked for.

Cons

Where to start. 1. Senior leadership are deeply incompetent. They don't know how clinical trials are run, and they are not interested in learning from people they consider below them. 2. Managers are only interested in maintaining their position, rather than actually supporting employees. 3. Bullies at all levels of seniority and in all functions are supported and empowered, while the people/teams they bully are consistently told to suck it up. 4. Leadership hire other people like them (so more people with little to no industry experience). They then try to gaslight employees saying these people are qualified to lead (they are not). 4. Employees are monitored, and office attendance for at least 3 days a week is mandatory, regardless of where you live/how long your commute is/what promises you were made at the time of hire. They actually track you. If your attendance is low, your bonus gets curtailed. 5. There is no interest in mentoring and developing employees, or in supporting their growth. 6. If you try to stand up to the system, they will turn you in the bad guy and systematically destroy your mental and physical health, regardless of how good a job you are doing. Do yourself a favour...avoid this company like the plague. Any competitor is bound to be better.
