Pros
The people in the London office are friendly, they have alot of social events and they work on really exciting projects.
Cons
I enrolled in the 1 year allegro write training program that came with a 9 month probation period; however, they fired me after 3 months. I was not given the opportunity to learn and grow at my own pace after being a graduate and this was my first ever role. The training programme is intense and stressful, my mental health has never deteriorated so fast. The management of the programme are cold and apply a lot of pressure. I have never doubted my ability or skillset as much as when I had this job. I was heartbroken when my probation meeting was moved up for whatever reason and they decided to let me go. Thankfully I got a new job shortly after that make working enjoyable and not an anxiety ridden experience. I would not recommend applying for this company if you are completely new to medical writing as you would be made to feel less than and incapable when really, all you need is time and the opportunity to grow and thrive as you learn new skills. If I was able to make it to my probation I know that I would have developed a lot but I was called a bad investment to the business and dismissed unfairly in my opinion.
