Pros

A few sensible people are present but they are on mute

Cons

Fire fighting approach towards work Exploitation Compulsory weekend working (even if you are dying, no leaves offered) Crazy managers Team Leads selection based on 2 things - 1) should be a woman & 2) should be a girl

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, we’re sorry to hear about your personal experience. We constantly work towards making Springer Nature a great place to work. We ensure our colleagues have equal access to growth and development opportunities and we assure you that there isn’t any conscious bias. We continuously strive to make our processes transparent and inclusive. Colleagues have to go through a test, group discussion/technical test and 2 to 3 rounds of interviews. The 7-day rotational working is part of a business unit’s regular way of working and the same is communicated to all, working on weekend is optional. However, if there are any concerns you feel that warrants attention, we will be happy to look into it. Please reach out to HR.

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.
