Pros

Innovative Projects: IQVIA provides opportunities to work on cutting-edge projects in the healthcare and pharmaceutical industry. This fosters a stimulating environment for those passionate about making a difference in these fields. Global Presence: IQVIA’s global footprint offers the chance to collaborate with colleagues from around the world, bringing diverse perspectives and enriching professional experiences. Training Opportunities: There are various training and development programs available, which are beneficial for career growth and skill enhancement.

Cons

Salary Promotions: One major downside is the lack of regular promotions on salary. This can be demotivating for employees who are looking for financial growth in parallel with their career advancement. Equipment Quality: As a software engineer, I have found the equipment provided to be insufficient for the demands of the job. This can hinder productivity and affect the quality of work. Work-Life Balance: The workload can be quite heavy at times, which may impact the work-life balance, especially during peak project periods. Management Communication: There can be a gap in communication between the management and employees. Clearer, more transparent communication would help in aligning goals and expectations.

Pros

Great pay initially, especially after negotiating. People are very smart and willing to meet for networking and learning opportunities. Flexibility and work life balance is by far the best perk - especially since many roles are fully remote.

Cons

Merit raises have been subpar the last 4 years and do not come close to keeping with inflation, consistently the company cites great EBITDA growth but that never is shown in bonuses nor merit raises despite receiving “exceeds expectations” ratings. Parental leave is a nominal. Very easy to get “lost in the sauce” of such a large company.
