Pros

Large International CRO, well-known, big pharma clients

Cons

They leave individuals the task of dealing with clients directly and completing the projects they are assigned, without enough support from the company. You can sit at the same level forever so long as you are fulfilling your function - the departments are big and individuals don't matter.

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 )
