Exciting changes, strong momentum

Pros

Now that ownership by Thomson Reuters is in the rearview mirror, Clarivate seems to be picking up steam and creating a new path. The new leadership team is bringing both energy and vision to each of the businesses. There's lots of change at every level of the company -- but this is a good thing for a company that was sleeping away in a quiet corner of TR. This is a great place for people who have new ideas and are willing to challenge the status quo.

Cons

Separation from Thomson is a little bumpy. Systems and processes are being rebuilt at a rapid pace -- and it can be a little exhausting. Also, corporate culture is "in progress". The company seems to be made up of either people with less than 2 years of tenure (who are eager, ambitious and happy for change) or people with more than 40 years of tenure (who are waiting out the new people, hoping that they'll go away and leave them alone).

Pros

Many long time loyal employees and colleagues dedicated to their work.

Cons

Extremely top heavy; all hoped that with the change this will not happen. Clarivate continues to hire VP's - approvals for actual workers desperately needed are slow or non-existent. Recently hired armies of sales or marketing people but if no resources are approved and no people are hired on the ground WHAT will they sell?

Pros

Currently there are no pros

Cons

This company is going in the wrong direction. While it was owned by Thomson Reuters they stripped the business of as much as possible. Lessened workers, required more worker demands, reduced salaries, changed OT policy, went with cheap health care plan, changed the 401k, the list goes on and on. Onex bought the company last year but instead of investing in the business continues in cost reductions of the company. The past 2 and current heads appear to have no idea howe to run a trademark company. Decisions are based upon their own looking good and not for the company as a whole. It's tough because we used to me the diamond in the trademark research. It appears our biggest competitor is investing in their employees and their products, but ours is only focused on maximizing profits.
