Avantages
Great colleagues! The people you work with are generally smart, dedicated, collaborative, and helpful. Lots of PTO. Many remote positions and/or flexible working options. You get to be a part of new, innovative therapies. Frequent opportunities for promotion and role changes. Line managers are generally supportive and helpful.
Inconvénients
I used to love my job, but it's gone downhill since LabCorp entered the picture. Health insurance was gutted and premiums increased significantly. Coverage is now terrible. Enjoy completing "wellness" activities for discounts and being forced to use LabCorp for your lab work so that they can profit off your data. Insane focus on metrics, which are not gathered accurately. Prepare to defend yourself constantly and inform them why their metrics are incorrect. No work-life balance. People frequently work 70+ hours a week. There's a lot of talk about improving it, but never any action. A lot of employee turnover, which makes more work for everyone and only exacerbates the work-life balance issue. Many directives from Sr. Management on "areas for improvement" for certain groups without additional support or employees to make those improvements feasible. So many silos. Outdated budgeting processes which set study teams up for failure. Refusal to push back on increasingly demanding clients leading to budgetary issues and additional team stress.
