Horrible experience from start to finish - Anonymous employee IMC Medical Communication Employee Review

Thank you very much for your review, we appreciate your feedback. We are disappointed that you did not raise your concerns with your line manager or HR, in particular that you felt your workload was equivalent to that of 3-4 people and that you found the environment challenging . As you are no doubt aware, we always encourage open and honest discussions and will always find solutions and provide support if we are aware of issues. We are fortunate that Shairose and the senior managers provide a high level of service to clients such that there is continuous repeat and new business - this gives us a competitive edge over our competitors and we always deliver above and beyond which makes imc so unique. We're sorry to hear that you feel we should have turned down client business. Regarding our social media posts, these always include photographs of our activities and as such are not "forced" or "set-up", the team is very happy to be in our posts and the culture that is shown, is exactly what you get. Shairose makes time for every single employee and has an open door policy - she is often away on client business and cannot therefore make time to acknowledge leavers or thank them personally - the senior managers and HR team always do this and as you know, each leaver has an exit interview. Shairose always makes a point of thanking employees during and post project delivery, in fact her generosity and gratitude at Christmas was thoroughly welcomed by everyone - it included a £10 secret Santa present, £50 voucher, Christmas party and Christmas Eve holiday for every employee. Her gestures speak volumes and the team are well aware of this. We do not ask anyone to write reviews on Glassdoor, and neither do we have a 3 month notice period for all roles - this is misinformation. Irrespective, a 3 month notice period is standard business practice within our industry, in fact, many of our competitors have a 3 month notice period even for junior roles, while imc doesn't. Regarding the work we deliver for our clients, be it apps or any other projects - our client testimonials and growth speak for themselves. imc was in fact short-listed this year as a finalist in Communique for an app which it developed for a client, so we clearly have the appropriate skills in this area. Finally, regarding the turnover, this is no different to any other med comms agency. We wish you well in your future endeavours, if you would like to discuss any of the areas you mention in your review, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us - we're always happy to hear from ex employees.
