Pros

Benefits package was OK (not excellent), and approximately 30% of management were competent, respectful, and reasonable. Paid time off was very good: 20 days sick and vacation combined, plus 7 holidays. Some great people work for WK-Health, but the best don't stay.

Cons

Salaries are dreadful. Depending which group you work with, constant intense stress can be expected, or you may have problems filling your day. Zero personal development, almost zero growth potential. Most management personnel are arrogant, disrespectful, and blissfully unaware of what it means to produce what they are asking. Huge problems are simply tolerated and walked around, like the elephant in the room, because managers don't know how to solve problems...they apparently excel at Excel, and little else.

Pros

Wolters Kluwer has some genuinely amazing people working for them and offers flextime for good work/life balance

Cons

Recently began pushing to "inhouse-outsource" as much of the core business functions as possible to their new service center in Pune, India. While many of my Indian colleagues are exceptional people, the constant turnover with overseas contractors and haphazard hiring and training process means that many of these staff members are woefully underprepared and set up for failure. As an example, I had to train my Indian contractor replacement before I left - while he was a lovely person, he had zero training in or experience with US payroll, benefit or tax structures despite that being approximately 50% of my core job function.
