Thank you for sharing your points. Our inclusive and open culture is truly special and colleagues support each other and respect the balance of work and home life. Last year we committed to focus more on supporting colleagues growth and we designed a global career hub which has tips, learning and ideas on how to proactively look to develop with the support of your manager. We regularly benchmark salaries and offer flexible benefits such as our workation policy which is very popular as it offers an opportunity to blend having time with remote family and friends and flexibility to work from other locations.

Pros

Working at Springer Group is a very enriching experience: all the tools are available, there's a lot of order and it's easy to learn when you start your contract.

Cons

Pushed to an extreme level, this order and these processes are sometimes to the detriment of productivity. As a project manager, I'm relatively limited when it comes to taking decisions on my own projects. Because of a lack of autonomy and trust, certain deadlines are missed and certain external commercial relationships are damaged, which is a real shame when you're working towards a common goal. By the same token, the learning process at the start of the contract is one-sided: I show you and you watch. There is very little room for "you fly on your own wings and I'll catch you up if need be".

We do have extensive resources to help colleagues keep on top of the latest thinking and encourage everyone to be open to new ideas and develop. Interesting your point about learning, we have recently created a new learning & career hub for all global colleagues to have access to tools, tips and ideas on their development so we can improve the experiences. Our innovative and inspiring culture is rewarding and our people make it unique and a special place to make a positive impact and contribute to some of the worlds greatest challenges.
