Pros
Kind, smart, engaging co workers; some of the best I've had. Beautiful Emory campus. 403 Employer match, tuition reimbursement. Looks great on your resume, which is important because you'll be burned out soon and looking for a new job.
Cons
As others have said, CTO employees are overworked, under-appreciated, and severely underpaid. Oncology clinical research involves complicated, demanding protocols and is a lucrative research area. However, nothing about these realities is reflected in how CTO research staff are compensated and how they are treated. Though you will have a much higher workload here than in areas outside of Oncology research, the CTO will start your base pay near the minimum of your position's salary range. Due to this, a seasoned employee is hard to find because they are always leaving to find a less stressful job that pays what they are worth. Employees that stay have to compensate for this by taking on even more studies and are quickly burned out. Morale is extremely low but senior leadership is so out of touch that they created an initiative to push coordinators to enroll even more patients on clinical trials, with no mention of any increases in pay, or any type of recognition or incentive for the staff that will be doing the work.
