Pros
None. IQVIA (pronounced ick-via) is a terrible company.
Cons
Too many to list. Quintiles never should have merged with IMS Health. IQVIA is a terrible company. Private Equity/Executive leadership just uses this company as their own personal ATM. Our cash flow is terrible. IMS leadership's business philosophy is to leverage the company with debt to enable growth. Employee benefits that have been eliminated: -Micro purchase plan: company would give you $1200 every 3 years to buy a new computer. -Healthy rewards: company would have a health fair where they would take your biometric screenings. If you were in the target range, you and your spouse could qualify for $2,000 that would go towards your deductible. -$30 monthly gym reimbursement. -Healthcare: shifted from Cigna to Aetna. Shifts all the costs from the company to the end user. Had to get the terrible HSA option. Ari Bousbib, CEO follows the Gordon Gekko style of management; greed is good is his motto. He obviously read Jim Collins book, "From Good to Great" and is doing the exact opposite. He gets a bloated $40 million salary and $19 million bonus. Meanwhile, the rest of us suffer. Layoffs are ongoing. Management said there wouldn't be anymore in October 2016 then the whole vendor management department got laid off right before Christmas. Completely heartless company. Employee morale is at an all time low. Goodluck advancing your career here. Employees leave and they don't back-fill because they are too cheap. They re-distribute the work and expect you to get it done without offering any pay incentives or a simple thank you.
