Working in Springer is like going back to school as learnings are so intense so only people tuned in to learning from scratch can survive.

Business Outlook

Pros

Fairly generous sick, vacation, insurance policy. As far as I've seen, nearly no one is ever laid off, fired, let go, etc.

Cons

There are some truly incompetent people who stay in the same positions for years and years. On the flip side, there is a high attrition rate for good, smart, efficient employees, who can all see they have better options.
