Pros

The top aspect I value in a company is teamwork amongst colleagues, and Fishawack has that. My team members across all departments have been supportive from the start, offering friendly guidance or motivation when needed and instilling trust and confidence in me as a valued team member. The training and career development resources have helped to shape my path towards success in the medical writing field.

Cons

Same cons that can be found at any medical writing agency and are unavoidable due to the nature of the work (working towards deadlines and juggling multiple projects)

Pros

Incredible co-workers who genuinely supported each other doing innovative interesting work.

Cons

Culture has eroded in recent years. Hours are unsustainable for those driving success in the business. Significant talent has been lost and not replaced. Internal folks keep taking on more and stepping into roles previously held by people with decades more experience and more robust staffs. They are setup to fail by a leadership with minimal understanding of large parts of the business. Leadership is toxic, feigning interest in feedback from employees, learning the business, and restructuring for long term growth and health of the business. Instead, egotistical leadership interested in associating their names with shiny digital products or propping up their pet projects continues to burn cash while the core business suffers. Such a classic case of buying a brand and hollowing out what built it.
