Pros

Amazing colleagues, lots of smart, curious and collaborative people. A lot of opportunities to be involved in different projects and initiative that enrich your work life and offer development. Good benefits.

Cons

Top down hierarchy and rigid structures. Most things take a long time to happen and there is a lack of ownership and decision power beyond the most senior leaders.

Thank you for your review. We have a highly collaborative, intellectually stimulating, and purpose-focused culture. Colleagues are empowered to drive open science and make a tangible global impact across health, climate, and education and this opens the door for curiosity. The environment we work in embraces transparency and global collaboration, championing the idea that publishing is just the first step in advancing human progress. This purpose and sense of belonging is rewarding for many of us. With such a high collaboration across the group, we do reflect and sometimes take time to make a decision - allowing us to show consensus. Work life balance and workplace wellbeing are important allowing us to have a healthy balance with family and friends. Thanks again.
