Pros

Some training programs are high quality CRO experience HIghing preferences are low - easy to get in the door

Cons

Management is comprised of good ole boys club. Initiatives are rarely tested - throw something against the wall and hope it sticks. Technology is basic - company is ran off of personal spreadsheets HR department is nearly incompetent - bulling, intimidation are means of managing - consistent policies are not existent Project Managers are worst in the industry In-fighting between departments and politics

Business Outlook

Pros

Gain experience, work with a lot of diverse clients. Good physicians on staff if they have the time to work on the team, you might learn some things. Excellent contracts and proposals process, laborious but you will learn a lot if you get a chance to participate.

Cons

Resources not managed, driven by the fire of the day. Some groups work thousands of hours over time and others work less then 20. No one is watching the store. Management always reactive to overspends early on in projects.
