Pros

As a young woman beginning her career out of college, Macmillan offered a fantastic environment in which to learn and grow. Supportive bosses, upper management, and colleagues. Very collegial atmosphere overall.

Cons

Very low starting salaries, even for publishing. Bonuses for junior employees are low or non-existent.

Pros

A lot of nice people and great books to work with.

Cons

Very antiquated systems. Sales teams and a lot of teams are in bubbles. There are a good amount of managers and higher ups that have been there for a while (10-30 years) and they don't like change, make their teams life hell, and keep them more siloed.
