The work is great, the company is woeful

Editorial

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great work, interesting, the chance to be creative and to share ideas.

Cons

The corporate side of the company is looking in trouble. The takeover of Macmillan by Springer meant that everything is now done "the Springer way". Now the upper management are being packed with Elsevier crones, so the company is aiming to gouge more and more profit while cutting quality. The IT system is a joke... there is not a week that goes by when nature.com doesn't go down or email goes down or wifi goes down. Crappyy outsourced helpdesk with slow response time. Too much corporate crap overwhelms everyday work.
