Pros
A large company with opportunities across business units (though not always clear how to move between jobs).
Cons
Company with an "old conservative corporation" mentality. There are pyramids of managers, many of them loosely qualified and certainly not needed. Communication is difficult and confusing, and very slow. Rapid changes in Publishing mean that strategies, projects, and priorities are constantly in flux. Change feels often directionless. Feedback is not always welcomed. Management discusses what goes well instead of looking at what is not working with clarity. The company states is fully committed to Diversity & Inclusion. But diversity in many locations is very sparse. Many promotions are based on diversity quotas and often given to less qualified colleagues, instead of recruiting a truly diverse workforce. It's the wrong fix. The company offers a plethora of Wellness programs that are meant to help manage burnout. They are attempting to fix the symptoms instead of the root causes. I don't know of anything that is being done to prevent work and moral burnout.
