good CRA 1 program, but monitoring is lacking data quality

Pros

Good start as a CRA. Syneos has a good CRA 1 training program.

Cons

Too metric driven so much so that quality in monitoring was going downhill. There needs to be a referendum and redirection within their clinical research group so that all CRAs are properly trained to adequately monitor their clinical studies. Also, Syneos use to offer good perks as a CRA, but no longer offer airline club membership as of 2021.

Nice people, not so good management and salary

Business Outlook

Pros

People you work with are amazing, if you are good at what you do you will have no issues. Work / life balance.

Cons

Every manager operates differently, one micromanages while others don't. Most of them are constantly speculating on certain things, never certain on if something will get done. Salary extremely bad for current inflation which is 30 % where i am from and since it has started they have had no plans of raising the salary for at least 15 % like even smaller companies which earn way less.
