The choice to work for a CRO or a pharma company may come down to culture, with CROs typically being faster-paced and providing more varied work opportunities. Certain CROs may even offer higher salaries than pharma companies, but this will largely depend on your specific role.
On the other hand, pharma companies – particularly well-established ones – may offer greater job security, with CROs being reliant on their clients. Pharma companies also often give you access to the most innovative technology and work environments.
Innovations in technology and data-usage – such as natural language processing (NLP) – are allowing for fast-tracked clinical trials and are accelerating the development of life-saving products.
