      I have been working at Thomson Reuters full-time (Less than a year)

      Pros

      - Culture (Welcoming, Flexible, Value-Driven)
       - Collaborative Atmosphere - people value your feedback/input at all levels of the organization
       - Employee Appreciation - TR truly values their employees (Employee Picnics, Continuous Education/Training, Career Development, Maternity Leave Policy (AMAZING!!!), and the overall Culture makes you feel appreciated and happy to be apart of this wonderful company.
       - Campus - this building and the campus is beautiful!! I have yet to walk around and explore.
       - Commute - my commute is so much better now. Makes a huge difference in my stress level not having to sit in traffic for hours!
       - Work/Family Balance - This company truly "Gets It" when it comes to balance with family and work. This is so important for your well being and state of mind.

      Cons

      - Communication - sometime with a company this big, it's hard to keep up with what's going on. The notifications are nice, but the come in all sort of directions and it can be a little overwhelming.
       - Company Structure - I know this is in the works - but it's challenging to know who does what and where! I've only been here a year, so I'm still learning the ropes around here :-)

      Advice to Management

      Keep up the great work!!! This is an amazing company and I'm proud to be a part of it! :-)

      Lots of changes at upper level meant larger strategic sales decisions took a long time time to make and implement.

      Achieve some stability.

      I worked at Thomson Reuters full-time (More than 10 years)

      Pros

      Large company, global options, decent perks, good locations, share options are useful and allow a personal investment in the company

      Cons

      poor management, from middle managers to senior managers the aim seems to be targets, targets, targets. Customer satisfaction is based on numbers, bonus objectives are based on numbers - it is just a sales organisation, not a service organisation it used to be

      Advice to Management

      Look for individuals, not clones. Look at real satisfaction, not the complaints. If you look after 1,000 individual clients, the ones you're most likely to hear from are those unsatisfied. It does not create a realistic review of individuals.

      Invest the time in understanding what you want to be and your people will make it happen.
