Pros

Good work/life balance with possibility to work from home (1 day/week for editorial roles), many business travel opportunities, diverse international colleagues and inspiring values to live by. The Nature team focus on the content quality and strives in positivity. Colleagues are highly collaborative and share constructive feedback. Lots of freedom and independence as some line managers are based in different countries. HR has improved substantially in MENA in the last year, with procedures slowly being standardized across the region.

Cons

Springer and Macmillan focus more on product sales rather than product quality. This discourages some and contributes to a high employee turnover. Unisys IT support is a nightmare.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts from our New York office. We have a great team; our purpose and culture continue to be 'stand out' and some of the reasons so many colleagues stay with us longer term. We are collaborative and progressive and everyday we contribute to learnings for generations to come.

Thank you for sharing your review. We kicked off our second Career Growth Week so far this year with a focus on feedback which underpins growth at every level. Alongside the flagship sessions, colleagues took part in a wide range of virtual events across the week. These included popular sessions like building skills through feedback, Forward Talk, AI-powered feedback, “expert” careers and mentoring panels, the Facilitation Marathon, and a LinkedIn personal branding workshop, as well as practical learning through the Level up: boost your skills and Talent Attraction sessions. Perhaps look out for the next one which will be in a few months time. Colleague development is core to our organisation.
