Pros

FSP work is great and feels stable, many of the people that work for syneos are very hard workers and have lots of experience in the industry

Cons

If your manager is not championing you, it is absolutely impossible to get salary increases/promotions. When promotions do occur, the compensation does not even come close to what it would be if you were an external applicant.

Pros

You are never bored due to constant work

Cons

Lab is run horribly. Sample Management never sees promotions. Starting salary is good and then you’re trapped in quicksand. I was graded as the highest possible rating for my merit increase and got a $0.26 hourly increase. The company doesn’t care about everyone working on the back end of studies.
