Pros

I came to Prescript as a new grad - with a bit of relevant experience - to be an Associate Medical Writer. After a year I got promoted to Medical Writer. The people here are really fun to work with, with a lot of strong experience across the company. Also since I started last year several other grads have joined the company, so now there is a nice little group of us to help each other out if need be. Although there is no formal 'grad scheme', there is lots of support for new grads (they've just introduced a mentor scheme), and managers are very involved in developing and supporting junior staff. Also pretty much anyone in the company will happily take some time out their day to give you a hand or advice. This is a Med Comms agency, but since being here I have been involved in a wide variety of projects (purely scientific, marketing campaigns, awareness campaigns, learning and development, corporate comms, etc.). It's very much up to you which areas you want to get involved with (depending on what projects are in), but it's a great chance to get experience writing across a wide range of areas. Flexible working is always a big pro! Plus we get paid overtime when projects need extra work (which thankfully doesn't happen too often).

Kontras

Be ready to hit the ground running, there is a lot of support but it can feel a bit like you've been thrown in the deep end until you get the hang of it. Not everyone has laptops, which can limit mobile working if that's something you prefer.

Thankyou for taking the time to write a review. We have taken your comments on board and are working hard to create a really comprehensive graduate program for all of our new colleagues so that we are better able to support them in their new role. We hope you will contribute to this by taking the time to think about what may have helped you and sharing that with us. Congratulations on such a fast promotion! What an achievement!

Pros

Free parking Occasional office snacks

Kontras

In short, not a pleasant place to work. There is a real culture of bullying which I see others have also mentioned. The leadership team are without morals, incredibly narcissistic, and have a very high opinion of themselves. Too high, considering they work for a small, unprofitable agency. Unfortunately in my time here I have seen lots of staff come and go. In fact, staff turnover is incredibly high, which tells you everything you need to know. More recently, I have seen the way they treat hardworking members of staff when they are no longer needed (because as an agency we are not bringing in enough work for them). It has actually been quite shocking to see. There is also such a weird and uncomfortable atmosphere in the office which is hard to put my finger on, but I think it comes down to the hierarchical nature of the place and the fact none of the staff ever have a positive word to say about the company. I can never wait to leave at the end of the day. Ultimately, when I accepted the job at Prescript I had other job offers on the table, but I chose Prescript as I liked the sound of it. I will always look back on that decision as the worst of my professional life. Lots of people here have said the same and are now exploring other opportunities. If you are thinking of working here, my advice would be don’t. Without knowing anything about you, I know you can do so much better.

Pros

Some good people. Good intentions.

Kontras

Over time I noticed more and more red flags. Lots of quiet months. Financial targets moving and downgrading. A few senior leadership members who earn a lot for delivering very little. The most talented people tend to move on. An obsession with timesheets that made work poorer.
