Pros

Unlimited sick leave and good benefits. Most employees are hard workers and knowledgeable.

Cons

Quintiles leaves the utilization of perks (i.e work from home, flex schedules, work life balance issues) to management discretion. Therefore if you management changes and it will about every year or so, so does the rules and the administration of those rules. You could be allowed to work from home for 3yrs and all of a sudden it is no longer allowed. HR does not effectively manage dispute resolution or provide assistance or protection to employees even if you are a good worker and have been an employee for almost 10 yrs.

Pros

The layoffs were handled quietly and unexpectedly, even though there were some early signs. They didn’t share who else was affected, but it was clearly more than just me.

Cons

They’re doing layoffs in phases, and my position was part of the most recent round.
