Vantaggi

- Opportunities to read and shape the best science - Working on a team that supports you - Support from colleagues outside your immediate team who believe in the overall mission to publish the best science

Svantaggi

- Major disconnect the highest levels of management and the actual culture of research publishing - The move towards optimizing the company for more efficient turnaround times and increased publishing output devalues and ignores the editors' input and efforts that have been spent to bring in the best science year upon year, and adds more to the already-overburdened editorial workloads without proper compensation for the additional workloads. - Repeated promises to bring in more personnel to alleviate these burdens, but the fulfillment of these promises are never fast enough and take at least several months, adding to existing editors' stress levels and contributing to burnout.

Thank you for sharing and sorry to read of your experiences more recently whilst you have been with us for so many years. We want all our colleagues to continually feel supported and, for those who have been here for some time, to be clear about what we stand for and have support to develop and speak up with ideas to improve things. The calibre of our colleagues is extremely high and finding similarly skilled talent in the market is not always an easy task and can take a little longer than we would like. We are working on this and we strive to regularly benchmark salaries within our industry. Thanks again. For career development we have listened to our colleagues and taken action to design a global career portal which brings together resources, training and events to help our people take ownership of their career development through planning, acquiring new skills and discovering opportunities to grow.

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.
