Overall good place to work with great leadership - depending on your division work/life balance may vary

Senior medical writer

Business Outlook

Pros

Overall my experience of working here has been positive. Being privately owned gives a sense of stability and independence. Leadership has generally always been promoted up from the bottom rather than hired in at the top, increasing the level of trust in senior management who know what they are doing. Everyone wants to do the best job they can and is passionate about what they do. Projects are generally interesting.

Cons

The volume of work can sometimes be challenging. I know that depending on what division you work in, work/life balance can be easier or more difficult to manage. I definitely struggled initially but ended up in a good place.
