Pros

• Good healthcare benefits • Work from home policy is good • Has wide range of healthcare clients which give you the opportunity to work on different projects / studies

Cons

• Managers even at a Senior Director level lack the ability to manage diverse workforce. • It is shocking to see that in an era when companies promote diversity and inclusion, this company promotes nepotism • Promotion is based on how much gossip can you provide to your manager rather than the hard work • There is high attrition in Singapore office because of bad people managers. The HR is aware about these manager but does not want to take any action to improve the situation • Employee satisfaction surveys are done only to check the box and there is no action plan for the feedback given • HR talks about benefits like bereavement assistance, childbirth gift, marriage gift during offer and orientation but never pays this money • Bonus and merit increase is very low

Pros

only possibility to work from home, nothing else

Cons

since change from Quintiles to IQVIA the company changed for worse, much worse. Slowly, one by one already scarce benefits are taken away, they want their workers to volunteer, support charities etc but with all the cuts I will soon need charity myself. Now even Work Worth Doing rewards are taken.

Pros

-Awesome culture among CTAs -Very supportive line management -Lots of job opportunities, room to grow -Merit-based rewards, bonuses, etc. -Good for independent workers, no micro-management -Management in Clinical Operations does seem to care about making improvements

Cons

-Stingy about overtime -Severe lack of accountability for other departments. CTAs end up cleaning up the messes left by everyone else, and no one in those departments is willing to hold their people accountable. -Due to the above, the job sincerely does not pay enough. We are losing people left and right because other CROs will pay them more for less work. If CTA workload was actually in-scope, it would be competitive. As is, definitely not. -Not a lot of communication about promotions, and in general people have to over-perform for about 2 years before getting bumped to CTA2 (which is only a pay increase of about 3k per year). This came up on the employee survey, and the response from the CEO was basically "we have merit based pay, if you want more money work harder." -Lack of management from study teams -Experienced CTAs have to spend enormous amounts of time training new CTAs -Most studies under-resourced, everyone in clinical operations is stretched thin and stressed
