I worked at Medpace full-time
Pros – None
I guess if you like your colleagues then that is the only positive.
Cons – Non-director level positions don't have a private office, set-up is cubicles, there is no privacy as everyone can hear your conversations. There's micromanagement, the directors don't know how to delegate. They need to learn how to delegate the workload. HR does not allow for the employees to socialize so be very careful what you say and watch your behavior. You can be terminated without any reason.
There are better companies than this one.
Advice to Senior Management – Learn how to delegate the workload. Follow the employee's job description. There is no training in place in any department. Need to learn how to implement team building.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company

Pros – Coworkers are wonderful people. Company really cares about the employees. Business is growing rapidly so workload can be heavy at times, but that is recognized and time off is encouraged to avoid burn out. Small perks are great- free soda, tea, coffee, and lunch.
Cons – If you don't fit here you don't stay, though that could be a pro or a con. Company gives everyone a chance but does not hesitate to terminate those that don't fit. Work load is high, but not unmanageable. Definitely have to be able to manage your own time and be pro-active in your job.
Advice to Senior Management – Keep supporting and communicating with your employees - both help everyone feel valued and part of the team. We are proud to be working here and want to be able to continue helping the company grow.

I have been working at Medpace
Pros – Lab Supervisor is very knowledgable and very supportive of the techs.Always there to help. She is very professional when dealing with the more "difficult" employees.
Cons – Long hours somedays. Would be nice to be paid hourly instead of salaried.Lab Director is non existent. Lab is not as "important" as the CRO.
Advice to Senior Management – Lab Supervisor needs additional. Would be nice if upper management listened to her recommendations. She encourages independence but is always there if needed.

I have been working at Medpace
Pros – Great salary and benefits package.
It is a good place to learn about phamaceutical research. It is a good place to develop lab skills.
Not having to work on holidays is great for lab workers.
Cons – I work in the lab and the hours can be long. You have to stay until all the work is done.
The micromanagement is stressful, you are questioned about your work and why you do it the way you do.
Manager is condescending and talks "down" to employees.
Advice to Senior Management – Offer some management training classes so managers know how to interact with employees without micromanaging. Being a good manager is not about reminding people you are the boss.
The social events are a great way to meet people from other departments and learn about what other kinds of work are done at the company.
