Pros

Friendly Staff Flexible working The Executive Leadership Team are trying to make the best of a bad situation and push for positivity and progress

Cons

First and foremost, this is not a bad company. However, it is now owned by Private Equity Groups, who will want to sell on in the next 3-5 years. Consultants have come in and driven a series of cuts which have seen job losses across Europe and North America. Years of experience has been ripped out of the company which, coupled with a chaotic system re-launch, have brought processes to a standstill. This company will be broken into pieces and sold off, so would suit individuals who are used to changing jobs every couple of years. If you're looking for a long-term home to build your career and expertise, this is not a safe bet. If you aren't integral to the big-money products, you are not relevant.

Pros

Any pros are overshadowed by all the cons. If I could give zero stars, I would.

Cons

Takes advantage of employees - overworked and underpaid Compensation is significantly below industry standards It's virtually impossible to get your full annual bonus paid out unless the business hits targets (but I'd venture to say they'd make an excuse not to pay out a full bonus even if they hit targets) No vertical growth opportunities "Policies" are not the same for everyone All decisions are made in a vacuum and business targets seem to be pulled out of thin air Zero change management support for the constant M&As

Clarivate is a big company

Pros

International company which is truly a global community Good people work there (The culture is relatively good at the moment, but is declining as more and more people are leaving).

Cons

Focused solely on its stock price. Says it cares about people but doesn't show it. Bonuses are dependent on a high colleague engagement score, so the truth hurts your chances for a bonus. Growth areas are India and Serbia, so no investment is being made in the US (you have the impression they are just waiting for you to leave so you can be replaced by someone less expensive for them) They don't value people's experience in the company
