Pros

I met some great and talented people, but I cannot find anything positive.

Cons

As someone who occasionally works on pharma side and recently crossed back over to agency again, I found the conducts of Cogora and it's senior team concerning. I was let go with immediate effect for so-called performance reasons without any pre-warning or evidence to said 'poor' performance when requesting it. I strongly believe this happened because I raised concerns about the ethical and moral conducts of the agency. As a 'sometime-client' it is my responsibility to report any issues I experience and consider an ethical issue within this industry. In return it is my MD's responsibility to address these issues. She addressed them by removing me for 'performance' reasons. She waited until I delivered my final meeting to a client, who expressed his gratitude to my team in both person and writing. I find HR and the senior members to be self-regulating, inexperienced, dishonest and disrespectful, and one that will not tolerate opinions. And lastly, I agree with previous reviewers with regards to how legitimately real the 'good' comments are on here. They are in such stark contrast with what I experienced to be the truth about Cogora.

Pros

Some fun after work happy hours. The health benefits are good.

Cons

A very big disconnect between the New York office and the London office. People were being underpaid and forced to work a lot of hours. Large restrictions were made on sick days and vacation days. I only hope that the environment got better after some time.

Company has been around for many years and until recently, had a stellar reputation.

Cons

Awful Management, illegal sick day policies or lunch time allowances. The people are miserable. This is just a job until they get the job they want l.
