No Pros of working for SYNH

Cons

Lack of real world experience in the c-suite has tarnished SYNH. The employees who have worked here long enough know more about the CRO business than the new c-suite.

Pros

- (Mostly) kind people - (Mostly) kind clients

Cons

- Extremely poor management - everyone is overworked and has no time to genuinely support staff - Unlimited PTO is offerred, but it does not make sense - if you take a day off or a vacation, you make up for it by working longer days before/after and are pressured to be available on mobile for the company while on vacation.
