Pros

Stable job. Supportive management. Friendly, collaborative environment. Many opportunities to work on many different types of projects (as long as you show competency with your current work and take initiative to communicate your interests to your supervisors). Great place to work for early career.

Cons

The pay is not very competitive for most mid-to-late positions if you compare it to the pharma/biotech industry as a whole. However, keep in mind that this is consistent with most other CROs in the pharmaceutical industry that do not generate revenue from intellectual properties and compete for contracts to service pharma and biotech companies.

Pros

Provided health insurance. Good coworkers Good exposure to team at client site If you have a good technical lead, the job can be great!

Cons

You have 2 bosses (Technical lead from Client Site) and your PPD boss. PPD Boss does not know what is going on If you have a bad technical lead, your life can be miserable. Pay is low No protection from abusive technical lead (coworkers on same team can have a drastically different experience)
