Pros

Work/life balance is very good as are the pay and benefits generally. Some lovely people and a nice working environment, more opportunities recently.

Cons

There's a serious lack of transparency and clarity over promotions and pay rises. There's isn't a clear enough sense of expectations and goals and promotions are based on who you know / who is your manager. There's some serious holes in senior management and they don't engage enough with their employees. At the very top there's an old boys club that seems very difficult for anyone who isn't old, male and white to break into. It's demotivating to have no real sense of what you can achieve and how and to feel that no matter how well you do there is a limit on your progress just 'because' and so people leave to go elsewhere - loads of talented people have left in the last year for this reason.

Pros

Great company for a young starter who wants to learn the basics of commodity journalism and then move on.

Cons

Not good for those who are looking to grow within the company. Global company but no major opportunities to move around. Very British in its core but this might be changing with new US shareholders.

Pros

Friendly work environment -- allows work/life balance. Pay is good.

Cons

Could be more institutionalized given its size. Also, offices in the periphery don't get the same treatment with ones in London, Singapore.
