Very changed company

Pros

- Largely reasonable management and expectations - Wisely working to redefine itself for current market realities and trends - Good bonus program - Storied company - Fiscally conservative

Cons

- Messaging of 2000s ("the place to be!" for employees) gave false sense of security to staff - Redefining company, including many many rounds of layoffs, has been perhaps even more painful and demotivating for remaining employees than it needed to be - Management sometimes more focused on reports than on strategy and connecting the dots - Not a risk-taking company

Pros

excellent tradition of honest, intelligent commitment to quality product distribution

Cons

tradition of tight control from the top hindering adjustment to new realities of markets; new boys are smart but allow a layer of midlevel managers to insulate them from producers in the company

OK

Pros

Good work-life balance. Still some remnants of the "human being first" ethos. Good people.

Cons

Leadership is disconnected. Too many processes & bureaucracies. Too connected to traditional publishing. Leadership doesn't seem to know how to transform the company.
