Place where you learn to prioritize
Clinical Data Coordinator (Current Employee), Bloemfontein – May 3, 2013
Pros: flexi times
Cons: salary
With the large volumes of data that has to be worked through, you learn how to prioritize and divide your day in such a manner as to review every part of the task at hand as not to miss any important data. I have learned over the past few years how to communicate to my team and the client on a corporate level. Furthermore, I learned how to manage my – more... own time and also how to manage other when given the reigns. My co-workers look up to me even though I am the youngest in the team and always ask my input when a situation should occur. The most difficult part of the job would be the strenuous deadlines which at times feel unreachable. Although the best part of the job would be to meet your goals and deadlines simultaneously. – less

Great Benefits, poor management.
Risk Specialist (Former Employee), Durham, NC – May 1, 2013
Pros: benefits are very good
Cons: management can't vocus on what they want done, they were moving too fast and overlooking the obvious.
Was hired for new position.
Manager had vague idea of what my position would entail.
When given assignements, they were not clear and manager failed to fully explain what she wanted done.
Actually repremanded for doing too much due to lack of communication.
Told things moved fast with company but not provided with proper expectations.

It an ok place to work at.
Clinical data Co-ordinator (Current Employee), Bloemfontein – April 25, 2013
Pros: yes we have fun days at work, where we interact with other employees
Cons: the promotions and salaries
My typical day at work is data review, trainings.
I have learned to manage my time, pay attention to detail. And produce quality work. I have also learned to work under pressure and put the customer first.
The money is not enought for the amount of work we do.
Themost enjoyable part is the culture at Quintiles and the technology is up to date.

Great Place to start a sales career
Territory Sales Representative (Former Employee), East Saint Louis, IL – April 1, 2013
Good place to begin your job or if you enjoy the flexibility of continuously changing jobs managers and territories. It takes a person that craves change and to a certain extent instability. Overall the compensation pack and management teams made up for the security issues.
