      Pros

      Work from home twice a week, on-site fitness center, and physicians assistance.

      Cons

      SIA department has extreme work load with unrealistic timelines, poor communication, metrics system which allows for no time off or to be sick because if you take time off you'll need to work overtime to catch up due to the workload. Very high turnover. Stay away if you want to remain sane.

      Not like it used to be

      Pros

      Still many good people remain in PPD.

      Cons

      Quickly losing the humanity and strength of the company through layoffs, lower working budgets, lack of investment in technology. Cost cutting is destroying what was unique and valuable in the CRO industry. Too much hierarchy.
