Recruiters/TA professionals beware

Pros

Good benefits (but pricey), unlimited PTO, really wonderful colleagues within my immediate team, good comp structure for recruiters (although I’m sure they’ve changed that by now)

Cons

They’ll ask the recruiting team to sell Syneos Health as an organization that puts its people first - then cut you loose, even if they just recently recruited YOU over from a competitor. Upper management is completely unaware of the day to day. From the very beginning of my tenure, they were a complete disorganized mess - I couldn’t believe it, really. Unfortunately, nothing had improved by the time I left.

Pros

Good colleagues, we are there for each other

Cons

Where to start, the company in two years, raised salary 4%. - They openly tell us that they understand there is inflation, but that there will be no salary increase, even though inflation is 50%. - They assign us new job duties without changing the contract, changing the working title but without an increase.
