      Pros

      PLOS is a mission driven organisation and the staff who work there really care. It's a relaxed and focussed office and I have enjoyed my time there.

      Cons

      PLOS is currently going through a tough financial time, which could be unsettling for some.

      Pros

      I really can't think of one!

      Cons

      - Terrible culture in the Cambridge office, and the office itself is pretty grim and depressing. - Members of the PLOS One team that have been there for longer than a year are unwelcoming, unfriendly and unsupportive; they're basically AI robots with less emotional intelligence. Very high turnover in the team. Pointless meetings. Unnecessary bureaucracy. BORING work. - The morale among employees in general is SO LOW. - Strange car park rules. The car park is so small.

      Pros

      It's a true pleasure to work with dedicated staff who share enthusiasm in the mission-critical Open Access publishing space that PLOS founded.

      Cons

      Still trying to determine the right balance of publishing and technology initiatives.
