Fortrea reviews

They are looking for cheap resources- not quality people. Upper management makes decisions without thinking through all of the impacts they make. They are not transparent with sponsors and any explanations they give when asked are very vague. Too many “directors” and it’s not clear what they all do. Loyalty means nothing in the end- it actually goes against you because they just want to bring in new cheap resources. Layoff process was cold and employees were blindsided. Innocent employees treated like they had done something wrong and were left to bare the financial burden of picking up insurance in a few short weeks.

MICROMANAGEMENT TO THE MAX. It is not just me, every CRA I have spoken to has noticed the sudden micromanagement. There is no hope of career progression anymore. No one is getting promoted. We have no more benefits, they won't even reimburse office supplies anymore (you have to get special permission to get them reimbursed). They fired all the line managers that viewed us as humans and left all of the micromanagers that only view us as metrics. No more annual stipend to help with TSA Precheck, etc. They say we have unlimited "Flex Time Off" but they sure do make you jump through hoops now to get it. They will absolutely threaten to revoke your FTO (example, "you haven't updated TMF so your FTO will be revoked"). You also have no hope of getting FTO approved if you're on a small study and can't find someone to be your backup
