Pros

401k, health insurance, PTO, flex time, travel,

Cons

Pay is not comparable to the work, companies that own PPD are gradually outsourcing departments to make the biggest profit before they sell it in a few years. There is no work/life balance and stress levels have hospitalized employees. Departments have poor communication within and outside of each other. Poor streamlining of processes and inefficient resources to complete deadlines.
