Pros

Springer Nature appears to have a good reputation, which is good for your career. Atmosphere is generally informal (though this may differ per team or country). Interesting workplace, international teams so lots of international contacts. Stable organization, generally good financial results.

Cons

Company appears to be struggling in terms of finding a good long term strategy. There are reorgs and restructurings every 18 months, or so it seems.
