Pros

Great salary and overall compensation package. Plymouth Meeting office is pretty amazing place, nice cafeteria, small gym, etc.

Cons

The company is addicted to mergers and acquisitions. They were IMS Health and they merged with Quintiles to form IQVIA. And then there was a merger with DrugDev. This continual cycle of mergers and acquisitions equates to constant restructuring, reorganization, and of course, off-shoring and layoffs.

Pros

The layoffs were handled quietly and unexpectedly, even though there were some early signs. They didn’t share who else was affected, but it was clearly more than just me.

Cons

They’re doing layoffs in phases, and my position was part of the most recent round.
