Pros

Over the past few years, they have really tried to overhaul the business with a new CEO and management team.

Cons

Very little interaction between different publications within the business. Even after two years, I didn't recognise many other people on my floor. The pay simply wasn't competitive (although this may have changed now), and the performance review system was painful and bureaucratic.

Slow to make key decisions and adapt to change

Pros

Good work-life balance, friendly atmosphere, genuinely strong team ethic.

Cons

There is a ballooning layer of 'directors' (i.e. middle managers) with ill defined, overlapping roles, whose main responsibility is to always be in meetings. This is at the expense of more necessary entry-level and intermediate roles working hands-on with the products. Decisions happen painfully slowly, especially on hiring. There are numerous stakeholders for every important decision, which leaves little opportunity for innovative ideas to come from the bottom up. Pay rises have been non-existent until recently and remain very modest.
