Pros

Software projects are challenging and technologies are awesome. Good place to grow professionally.

Cons

After ICON acquired PRA Health Sciences, work became much more difficult. It's hard to get a hold of HR or IT department. They have unreasonable level of security where they issue two laptops -- one for work, another for communication. Due to upper management politics, a lot of PRA management left. Morale is pretty low.

Pros

Strong Leadership, Fair/Average compensation, Thrive Program (company strives to keep you employeed as Sponsor reallocations occur)

Cons

HR is very hands off. It is very difficult to speak to anyone. Not simple to call and ask a question. Everything has to go through a portal. This is challenging when there is time sensitive needs. They make it work but in my opinion, this is a 'con'.
