Wherever we operate in the world, Reed Exhibitions ensures that all our employees are treated with the utmost respect and care, and we abide by all local laws. We do endeavor to listen to and act on all feedback, good or bad, from our employees, which is why we carry out monthly surveys. We are surprised by your personal comment. To better understand your concerns please would you get in touch with Alinne Rosa (Head of HR The Americas), or Richard Lowther (Global Head of HR), so that they may fully understand your comments and investigate internally.

Pros

Good place to start for new graduates.

Cons

Upper management does not not care about their employees, their teams, their shows, or much else, except their own bank accounts. If you're low on the totem pole, this is a great place to start, as you won't have to deal too much with upper management. But there is little room for growth (besides the "promotional" roles they've created to appease the younger generations) unless you plan to be a "yes" person and not question what they do. Upper management says one thing but does another, and will ignore a problem until it becomes so big that everyone is talking about it. They are disconnected, untrustworthy, and treat most people as disposable to them.

Pros

The people here work really well together. Everyone across the organization is highly collaborative in making sure each event is a hit! I enjoyed the people I worked with and there’s a real feeling of family at Reed. I was impressed by how much they are willing to work with employees on finding the right role for them within the organization based on their personal goals and career interests. As a working mother, I appreciated the flexibility afforded me to attend to family matters and the ability to work from home when needed. The President of the Americas is such a transformational leader. He strives to fully develop the leadership potential of others within the organization. He is a very smart businessman who knows the industry well yet he is always looking to learn from others across the organization. He is kind, humble and always willing to help employees grow personally and professionally. His open door policy and visibility in the office have earned him the reputation for being friendly and approachable.

Cons

Sometimes there is resistance to change from employees that have become accustomed to things being done a certain way. This was frustrating at times, but I know they are continuously working on improving processes in order to keep up with times.
