I would not recommend this company, it's all about the money, they don't care about employees! - Clinical Research Associate II ICON Employee Review

Pros

Salary is quite ok and benefits

Cons

It's all about the metrics and quantity, not quality. They put people to do just anything just to reach the goals and employees are not satisfied. Training and management is sometimes horrible. Quality suffers when people are just pushed to run to reach the metrics. They don't count other work than the site visits...

Pros

Very little pros to working here other than it's very easy to stay under the radar. The work load is light.

Cons

Very little room for growth, eventually got laid off because ICON over hired too many CRAs it could handle. The CRA bridge program was supposed to be only 3-6 months but people we not able to promote despite being there for 2+ years
