Pros

Good for starting your career, a lot of people you work with are lovely people

Cons

Management take on people who they know even if they are not exactly qualified. Managers don't know how to manage their staff, the have had very little training in this, low morale of managers is taken out on staff. Bullying from high management means people have gone on long term sick or have left. Staff are not appreciated and don't stay, mainly due to the poor pay. Clinic staff don't have to have a degree but all have and are exploited on terrible pay. If your face doesn't fit they will find a way to oust you. HR have no idea about confidentiality. Problems brought up about senior staff are brushed firmly under the carpet in fear of it instigating instability in their own employment. The worst manager are the ones who have been there for years and for whom it was their first job, Lots and lots of backstabbing behaviour, especially by those in high level positions who really should know better. Promotions go to people's heads even though the pay for them is not what it should be.

Thank you for acknowledging the great team of colleagues that you work with at Celerion. It is true that our business levels fluctuate during the year and we do appreciate the strong work ethic within the team. There have been several promotions this year and all hiring is performed to proper recruitment practices. Turnover is not high and employees are appreciated in various recognition programs.

Pros

Good clinical colleagues, good team approach. Staff will help support one another. Excellent experience for moving into the world of clinical research.

Cons

Poor, non clinical management. Poor work/life balance. No advanced rota, only finding out next weeks shifts at the end of the current week. Can have day/night shifts in the same week.
