Pros

Decent pay Day to day work is fine Great colleagues and lower management Genuinely remote work options

Cons

Toxic positivity - all concerns ignored so setbacks are just an opportunity to show your mindless enthusiasm Unrealistic targets (to the point of absurdity) - which literally everyone is aware of, but the aforementioned culture of delusional optimism means it's barely ever acknowledged Potential for apathy - unrealistic targets, coupled with a change to key performance criteria on a regular basis, mean its hard to assess your performance or even care that much Process changes are so frequent there's no point even learning the change thoroughly, because that too will be dispensed with in short order for something completely an utterly different, with no chance to assess if it worked or not Dishonest communication from upper management, what communication you will receive is very vague and usually late or out of office hours

Thank you for taking time to share your thoughts. Responding to the rapidly changing publishing landscape does mean we work in a dynamic, ever-changing environment and we usually achieve or exceed targets, with 2023 being an exception. This year, we are implementing new initiatives to make sure our communications are even more transparent and we offer even more opportunities to get feedback from employees. Please get in touch with your People Business Partner to discuss your concerns around performance management in more detail.

Pros

- Very dynamic teams - Your opinions are taken into account - Good place to share your ideas and try to make changes and impact

Cons

- It grew too much without a clear goal in the long term - The majority of the employees have been working less than 2 years in the company, making more difficult to have a good big picture of the company
