Pros
Good company culture Good pay/compensation Can work from home The company trusts you and doesn't micromanage Big focus on career development The team works with you to accommodate your workload based on your strengths
Cons
Training at the start is good, but after that, some individual teams assume you know everything thereafter so in some cases in-team support is lacking. Each team within McCann Health Medical Communications is pretty independent, so there are lots of inconsistencies in how policies are upheld e.g the company has an "unlimited annual leave" approach: some teams allow 35+ days, while in others you will be penalised for requesting 27 (you have a 25-day contractual minimum). The basis for promotion can also vary widely. The level of creativity asked of a medical writer isn't as extensive as the company advertises
