A place that only final results matter. Negative on real-life company culture and values. - Anonymous employee Springer Nature Employee Review

Pros

Stable business. Co-workers are generally fine if there is no actual working relationship.

Cons

There is a huge JSEAO meeting every year and employees are ridiculously expected to entertain the top management by doing performances that takes lots of time on top on actual work and preparation for the meeting. The meeting is meaningless, purely entertainment for top management. Internal departments do not share information. Sales Directors are frequent acting unreasonably, rude and demeaning to other departments but they get away acting like prideful lords as long as they butter up their boss and bring in the numbers. Management do not listen to the needs on the ground. The never-ending restructuring is introducing plenty of negative atmosphere to the air, lots of speculations going around amid the already bad office politics happening. Poor HR setup, and inadequate healthcare benefits for a large MNC.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts from our New York office. We have a great team; our purpose and culture continue to be 'stand out' and some of the reasons so many colleagues stay with us longer term. We are collaborative and progressive and everyday we contribute to learnings for generations to come.

Thank you for sharing your review. We kicked off our second Career Growth Week so far this year with a focus on feedback which underpins growth at every level. Alongside the flagship sessions, colleagues took part in a wide range of virtual events across the week. These included popular sessions like building skills through feedback, Forward Talk, AI-powered feedback, “expert” careers and mentoring panels, the Facilitation Marathon, and a LinkedIn personal branding workshop, as well as practical learning through the Level up: boost your skills and Talent Attraction sessions. Perhaps look out for the next one which will be in a few months time. Colleague development is core to our organisation.
