Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible working - location and hours Work can be interesting

Cons

You can work flexibly but will need to put in the hours to get everything done and all for minimal compensation. Some work is boring and monotonous Old school practices Promote based on time at The Lancet, not skill set and experience
