Pros

Line management is great, 2/3 of mine wholeheartedly seem to love their role and will support you to the degree they can do so. If you like getting set in a disease type or specific sponsor and really just changing trials within those - this is for you! Several people now hold this position as opposed to when I started and it was newer. I would still recommend this job to others, but have a goal you plan to push for yourself so you don't get stuck in this role too long.

Cons

There doesn't seem to be interest in developing the career path for the role. In several studies, the role easily feels stale instead of innovative - same things, different day. Annual increases are minimal if received/not delayed. No bonuses and hardly anything qualifies for tuition /certification reimbursement.

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'.
