Thank you for sharing your feedback about your experience with the application process at Costello Medical. We’re pleased to hear that our team was responsive and efficient during the job application stages. We understand that the proofreading assessment is comprehensive and time-sensitive, however it is designed to accurately reflect the nature of the role in which attention to detail and working to client deadlines is essential. Hopefully, it has stood you in good stead for your current role.

Thank you for sharing your feedback about your time at Costello Medical. We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed collaborating with your colleagues. Thank you for sharing your concerns with micromanaging, too. We strive to balance guidance with autonomy and it is generally an area we perform well in; in our 2024 Employee Survey 79% of respondents were strongly satisfied or satisfied with their levels of autonomy, whilst 15% were somewhat satisfied. The nature of our TechOps/IT team and activities means that compliance, accuracy and alignment are important across our many business-critical processes, which inevitably results in set processes for certain areas to ensure standardisation. That said, we hope that there are opportunities for TechOps colleagues to exercise autonomy and try new ways of working across many of the exciting projects being worked on in parallel, a large number of which have a strong innovation focus. Thank you again for taking the time to provide feedback.

Thank you for sharing your feedback about your experience at Costello Medical. We are pleased to hear that there were many elements that you enjoyed about your role. We conducted a review of all UK salaries in April 2024 which resulted in an increase to all salary bandings. As a result of this review, we saw a significant improvement in satisfaction with salaries with satisfaction rates increasing by 20% in our 2024 Employee Survey. Furthermore, we have introduced a new profit share scheme which means that all colleagues, including those in entry-level positions, can share in the financial success of the company. Finally, in 2025 we have planned a more holistic review of our benefits package. Thank you again for taking the time to provide a review.
