Pros

Great at what they do in Clinical Research, although the whole feel is strong brand minimal touch

Cons

Very poor IT department with realistic C level expectations, but with a dysfunctional and highly political support organisation. Insufficient time and budget given to actually solving long established issues, contributing the the self fulfilling perception of IT within a fast moving and Professional organisation

Pros

It is difficult to think of any pros in the current situation. Please read further to see why I believe this.

Cons

I believe the relationship between senior leadership who started in 2014 and Firecrest staff has now irreparably broken down. I believe their incompetent management means a once great company is now in rapid and terminal decline. I believe the culture of dishonesty, lack of integrity, and disrespect for people they have brought are fundamentally at odds with the Firecrest one for all spirit. I believe that the majority of my colleagues feel the same.
