Experience gained in ophthalmology but poor management support for field employees.

Sr. clinical research associate

Recommend

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

A good CRO for gaining experience in ophthalmology clinical research activities. Travel expenses were repaid on time and the travel agency worked well for field CRAs. Decent IT tech support while working remotely.

Cons

Poor communication to employees of policies working with different sponsors. Management will always support their sponsor's needs at the expense of their experienced employees. The current corporate owners have little respect for experienced employees and will lay them off to keep cheaper junior staff to inflate profits. Never ask questions or you will get terminated ASAP.

Once a great company that was taken over by private equity

Pros

Good benefits but not much else

Cons

Since being taken over by private equity, it's been a sinking ship. Constant layoffs, no financial stability, new C-Suite and HR leadership that is completely out of touch. Once a great company where people enjoyed working at that now feels unfamiliar and just cold.
