      Hello, Thank you very much for your feedback. We're always looking for ways to make PLOS a great place to work! Please note that we have recently become a fully remote company and our compensation now reflects this. We're excited for this new chapter as we grow and continue to expand on our mission of open access to all.

      Vibrant community dedicated to substantive DEI work

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Been here over two years and have seen a real, substantive commitment to DEI work both internally and externally. It's a slow process but the leadership is committed to it at the highest levels and as a POC, it feels real.

      Cons

      The organization tends to take on A LOT because it's so mission driven. This can mean resources aren't always there to support everything.
