Frontiers reviews

This company has a lot of problems and unfortunately I don't see how it will overcome them. - As far as I can tell, the senior leadership and managers are mostly inexperienced in the publishing industry and at running a fairly large company. They also micromanage to a really surprising degree, meaning senior leadership over-rule and undermine more experienced/knowledgeable team members or generally get involved in tasks and decisions you wouldn't expect them to. - This company does not seem to do long-term strategy or planning. This means each year (or more frequently) a whole new set of targets appear that often have little to do with last year's (and sometimes directly contradict them). There is then huge momentum towards these targets and often insufficient review of their success or ongoing relevance. - Completely unrealistic deadlines at times, and a general seeming addiction to chaos or inability to avoid it.

the leadership is a big red flag. very short sighted. and when it comes to taking responsibility the staff was just made responsible and not a single senior manager made redundant.
