Pros

Enjoyed my time in clinical management. Progression was possible for good results but only up to a certain level.

Cons

My time at PPD deteriorated when I moved out of clinical, to progress my career. It depends which department you work in and who you line manager is. I found some of the US colleagues very difficult to work with.

Pros

Provided health insurance. Good coworkers Good exposure to team at client site If you have a good technical lead, the job can be great!

Cons

You have 2 bosses (Technical lead from Client Site) and your PPD boss. PPD Boss does not know what is going on If you have a bad technical lead, your life can be miserable. Pay is low No protection from abusive technical lead (coworkers on same team can have a drastically different experience)
