Pros

Systems are first rate and years ahead of other companies. Plenty of talented staff members.

Cons

Business development continuously underbids projects. PMs and by extension, CTMs, make unrealistic promises to clients and then the CRAs are forced to deliver -- often at the cost of quality work.Projects are poorly run. Not enough effort is put into the up-front planning of a study, resulting in the need for re-work.

Pros

PRA has an excellent homegrown eTMF system. The system was very user-friendly and easily utilized as a review tool for comparison against the investigator's site file. Compensation and benefits are similar to other CROs. They were willing to provide opportunity for me to again therapeutic experience though my background was primarily in normal healthy volunteers. They also offered a mutli-day training to introduce new CRAs to their electronic systems, which was very helpful.

Cons

The line managers I worked under were not very helpful when I requested assistance achieve balance my workload and did not provide much support in challenging situations. That with the combination of a poorly managed high profile study ultimately lead to my departure from the company.
