Covance has a lot of pros and cons. It is a large company with great benefits. They will assist you with tuition reimbursement, health insurance, and provide support towards a healthy lifestyle. Because it is such a large company, it can become easy to become lost in it or have an experience that is not very personal. If you are interested in pursuing a scientific career, this could be a good company for you, as their is a lot of growth in the organization. However, the pay is not great. Overall, I would rank the pay as medium. There are multiple locations throughout not only our country, but other countries, as well. If you are interested in a job with opportunities in multiple locations, this could be the job for you. Overall, it is not a bad job for someone right out of college. They provide lots of training and it looks good as a first job on a resume. I would recommend it as a first time job, but not necessarily a job that you stick with for the rest of your career.
Internship at Covance. Was basically a full-time employee but didn't have any hard goals for daily output (and exempt from mandatory overtime). There was an intern project but it wasn't something that I could really put on a resume. Downside is, my manager couldn't really write me a letter of recommendation due to client confidentiality.
What I like with Covance is the opportunity of growth not only upwards, but with being able to transition into different departments. Covance is a leader in contract research.
