Flexibility, Recognition, and Support

Flexible Work Program — In-office, home-based or a mix?

Choose the right work arrangement for you! Parexel is committed to supporting the pursuit of work fitting into our lives. Depending on your role and location, working remotely, in an office or in a hybrid model are viable work options. 

Within Parexel's fast-paced, globally connected world, we need space to balance our jobs with our personal responsibilities and interests outside of work.

Recognition Program “Bravo”

We know how important it is to put people first. So we celebrate our colleagues and everything they do to accomplish their goals, help a colleague or project in need, live our company values and share their expertise. 

All year round we receive and give recognition — colleague-to-colleague, as a manager, for service anniversaries and life events. For certain recognitions, employees receive points which can be exchanged in our Recognition Shop for merchandise, experiences and donations.

• 15,000+ manager recognitions per quarter (Q2/2023)
• 7500+ colleague-to-colleague recognitions per quarter (Q2/2023)
• "Collaboration" is the most recognized behavior (Q2/2023)
• More than $150,000 have been donated to charities working in Ukraine 

A culture of support

Our employees thrive on a collaborative spirit – we trust in each other as much as we trust in ourselves. We wouldn’t finish projects on time and with first-time quality without people feeling the support of their colleagues, managers and Parexel. Their joint efforts are what make everyone’s success possible.

To support our colleagues' work-life balance we offer, in addition to the above-mentioned flexibility, a comprehensive number of health and wellbeing services, which vary by country. Globally we provide confidential counseling sessions and financial, legal and mental health support available 24/7.

Getting things done and improving our world calls for celebration. We come together digitally and personally to celebrate the finished projects, to show our support for diversity, equity and inclusion, and to deepen the connections we've built over the years of collaboration.
