Pros

flexi-hours, good location, excellent leave benefits

Cons

too much flexibility, leading to abuse by employees promotions happen because of the boss "likes" you most line managers are not concerned about employee development little training opportunities (excluding online training modules) global leadership does not understand asia culture and the needs of respective office most managers do things for the "sake of doing" instead of injecting real meaning into the actions they take Weak leadership especially managers are not trained properly and most people who are working extremely hard are not being recognized

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 )
