Pros

Stable job. Supportive management. Friendly, collaborative environment. Many opportunities to work on many different types of projects (as long as you show competency with your current work and take initiative to communicate your interests to your supervisors). Great place to work for early career.

Cons

The pay is not very competitive for most mid-to-late positions if you compare it to the pharma/biotech industry as a whole. However, keep in mind that this is consistent with most other CROs in the pharmaceutical industry that do not generate revenue from intellectual properties and compete for contracts to service pharma and biotech companies.

Pros

Lot's of different teams and support. CRAs only have to focus on site visits and visit reports.

Cons

There are 5 levels of CRAs at PPD. So at a minimum you will be a CRA for 10 years. No real room for growth.
