Business outlook

Pros

- most people are nice enough - continual investment into research and equipment - very smart colleagues

Cons

- incredibly poor work-life balance - burnout inducing - understaffed - over worked - A LOT of favouritism - you won't get recognition unless you absolutely scream about it - unless you are a 'red' personality, you're not deemed valuable (discovery insights have blown up the ego of many individuals)

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We would like to discuss further your views on recognition and favouritism - this was disappointing to hear. Could we ask that you contact HR at HRInbox@pharmaron-uk.com. We would like to have a strictly confidential discussion and understand why you feel this way please. We are growing and expanding rapidly so progression should not be slow for anyone in our organisation.
