Pros

If you're looking to actually learn how clinical trials work, and not just push paper, DocTrials is amazing for it. I really appreciated how encouraging they were to newcomers to the field! As a CRC there, I got way more hands-on experience than I expected which has been incredibly valuable for my future career. I had four clinical trials I oversaw which I thought was very reasonable. In addition, I also had the opportunity to learn how other companies run their trials I came to really appreciate how well run DocTrials is. I will say, the pace is really fast, but looking back I think it is what made me an amazing CRC and also a great clinician in my current career. The team is amazing and they actually trust you with real responsibility. Would def recommend working here!

Cons

The learning curve was a lot! You also wear a lot of hats which was great for autonomy and experience, sometimes stressful. This is probably just due to the nature of the work though

Pros

I always appreciated how the company was open to my career advancements. I expressed my desire to get my phlebotomy license and after discussion, the company paid for my training and license. They also supported me through my gruesome medical school application process by allowing me to take three months off to prepare for my MCAT and travel. I also was always reimbursed for travel mileage between sites and when I wanted to drive around town hanging flyers, as well as my phone bill. And while yes, you do wear a lot of hats in this position, the unfortunate truth is that it is difficult to find a clinical research position in general where you don't wear a lot of hats and, honestly, it was great to learn a variegated set of skills that are applicable everywhere. The most enjoyable part of the job I will say is how rewarding it is to work with patients who oftentimes have tried everything, and the clinical trials offer them an opportunity to take charge of their care. Although all of the regulatory stuff is boring at times, ultimately DocTrials is doing some great stuff for folks and it is rewarding to help patients.

Cons

There were times when I was overworked with a rare protocol asking for 12-hour visits, but I must admit it was pretty lucrative. They have a generous bonus system and also I received a lovely lunch stipend when I worked 12 hours which I splurged every day at the sushi restaurant across the street from me. I also got Fridays off which was nice. In addition, I expressed my discomfort with the added load and they ended up hiring I think 3 people to do data entry for the company and take that off my plate. I think as long as you (1) express your concerns and (2) offer a reasonable solution, management is very open to change.

Pros

The team is very positive and I am learning so much. The work is challenging but I enjoy learning different aspects of research. They have taught me how to critical think and look deeper into my ideas and work when I have questions. I love to have a list and check things off. They always are encouraging a work/life balance. They are a family run company so they always have looked out and supported employees when we need them. They are always giving us awesome swag, little gifts or lunch to show they care and support us on busy days.

Cons

We have several sites and I don't always get to work with my favorite co-workers. :)
