      Began well, then took a nose-dive

      Journal specialist
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Fully remote at the time, but would seem that is no longer the case for all employees The people

      Cons

      Joined in 2022 when the company appeared to be doing well, my experience then was that specialists were respected, had ambitious but reasonable targets and there was a great team spirit and camaraderie. By 2023 there was a shift in mood that percolated from top down, increasing focus on journal specialists' individual targets that became progressively unrealistic and major job specification changes that resulted in multiple (poorly organised and executed) training periods, alongside a significant increase in workload. By 2024, the workload was so heavy that it was normal to be unable to clear assigned daily tasks and these would just compound throughout the week. Specialists and managers were burned out and there was no morale left to speak of. Moreover, the increasing focus on use of AI and email templates removed opportunities for creativity and the work became dull and unfulfilling. Such a disappointing end to an experience that began so well.

      Thank you for your review and we are sorry to hear you struggled with your workload. While we do encourage teams to set ambitious targets (teams do decide on their targets with their managers), we are very disappointed to hear that it became unmanageable for you. We would like to follow up on this, so if you could send more information to feedback.ta@frontiersin.org, we would appreciate it.

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      It allows you to work with latests technologies. It allows you to attend IT conferences or work shops to learn new technologies. It has a great professionals from whom you can learn a lot. It takes care of its employees: annual salary revision, Xmas parties, company engagement, staying interviews, extra days off, etc.

      Cons

      It could take more risks creating more interesting projects.
