Pros

- Separating from Thomson Reuters, new management stated a goal of reducing bureaucracy and being able to make decisions faster. - New management stated that "we're buying the people" - Salary and benefits not outstanding, but reasonably competitive - Chance to grow skills (if you're in technology) - Management will do what it takes to make the company more profitable

Cons

- Bureaucracy has increased and decisions are coming much slower - New management shows blatant disregard for people, exhibits a kind of savior complex, that they are fixing something that was massively broken, which mostly means getting rid of people - Lack of accountability in HR, IT Services, help desk - Management out of sync with what's actually going on at the ground level - When it comes to bad news, don't have any, because the messenger will be shot - Profit as highest value

Pros

Opportunity to work with talented colleagues across North America, EMEA, and APAC. Flexible work environment with a strong emphasis on work-life balance for many teams. Complex, global business challenges that provide opportunities to develop operational, strategic, and cross-functional leadership skills. Exposure to enterprise transformation, AI, digital modernization, and large-scale operational initiatives. Collaborative teams with many dedicated employees who genuinely care about customers and each other. Ability to work with highly educated professionals across multiple disciplines and industries.

Cons

Organizational complexity and frequent restructuring can make decision-making slower than necessary. Roles, ownership, and priorities are not always clearly defined, which can create duplication of effort and reduce execution speed. Cross-functional collaboration varies significantly across organizations and often depends on individual leaders rather than consistent operating practices. Communication during organizational change could be more transparent and timely. Career progression can be challenging in certain parts of the organization due to ongoing structural changes. Continued investment in leadership alignment and organizational simplification would improve employee engagement and operational effectiveness.
