Pros

Completely remote position, excellent graphic design and editorial support, superb healthcare benefits and PTO.

Cons

Work-life balance is highly dependent on the team you work for and your supervisor. Poor client expectation management. Secretive about promotion timelines and path. They prioritize making money rather than supporting staff. Long and somewhat ridiculous training that takes you away from your work. Bonus structure makes it almost impossible to consistently get a worthwhile bonus.

Pros

Well trained managers that empower you, truly listen to you, and only do well if YOU do well/ they provide resources and definitely offer development opportunities to those who want them AND have demonstrated they can maintain their scoped, regular duties at a high level of quality while working on special development projects Also unlimited RTO in US

Cons

no bonuses and too much focus/emphasis on how many years with *Parexel*, as opposed to how many years total you have been in the industry (ex doing site management at another CRO or Sponsor group )
