Business Outlook

Pros

Work life balance is great and management are really supportive.

Cons

The company seems quite dysfunctional in lots of ways and this can be frustrating. Many processes and systems are tedious and certainly not customer-focussed.

Springer Nature Response

Thank you for sharing. We are proud of our highly talented people and our culture which offers flexibility and growth. Our excellent work life balance and hybrid working is popular. We are an ambitious, dynamic and progressive organisation that is home to some of the best-known names in research, educational and professional publishing. We continue to look to align and simplify processes and look to break down legacy silos. Suggest talking to HR and/or your manager would be a good step so we can address and support accordingly.
