Great company with a great mission

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The company mission is something you can really get behind and feel good about. The culture is extremely laid back and relaxed, and the majority of the people are awesome to work with and super smart. The CEO and President are fantastic, and most of the exec team is A+.

Cons

You need to be completely adaptable to work here. Things change often and the pace is extremely fast. While most people are great to work with, some managers are God awful and literally drive great talent out of the organization.

Good, but not great.

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Pretty good pay. - Opportunities to advance.

Cons

- They want to go for a startup feel, but fail miserably. - Open floor plans do not work for every department, especially those in the Corporate areas (Finance, IT, etc.). - They refuse to supply any kind of "swag" to employees to show pride in their company, especially at conventions and conferences. Not even T-shirts or sweatshirts.

Thank you for your feedback. We do understand that an open floor plan does not work for everyone. But, it truly is the way for Medidata – even our President and CEO share an office! If you are interested in swag, just contact Marketing or HR and they would be happy to supply you with Medidata branded gear! We are currently updating our items for various recruitment events and we encourage our employees to support our brand however possible!
