Penguin Random House reviews

Use of personal/sick time at short notice comes with points that count against you. You’ll have to do LinkedIn training on your own time (but you can also take classes unrelated to your day job). CS sells a growth plan in interviews, but you’ll finish the levels in a few years and its only a few hundred dollars in raises. Team Lead and Supervisor roles are appointed for each team so there’s no opportunity apply for advanced roles or transfer to a team with a different manager. The company doesn’t do annual performance reviews and everyone gets the same 2% raise. The same goes for the annual profit sharing bonus, everyone gets the same amount.

Worked for amazing teams within PRH but unfortunately found myself in a role working for a belittling monster who was hypocritical, toxic, and passive aggressive. Her insecurities made my day-to-day beyond stressful. She micromanaged every task, questioned my intelligence. Of course when I went to HR, they protected their own and basically said there was nothing they could do. So I quit. It's one small imprint that is toxic from the top down, which explains why all their assistants end up quitting.
