Pros

Not many anymore. There are still some good people trying their best to stop the executives from ruining the Legal, Tax and Science businesses.

Cons

The current executive leadership has no long term vision for the company. The whole culture now is about cost cutting to try to prop up the stock price in the short term. They are laying off good people and replacing them with 3rd party resources that don't have TR's best interests at heart. They aren't willing to spend any meaningful investments into building out the infrastructure of the business anymore. The only projects that ever get implemented are very small short term projects. Anything of substance that will position the company to be more agile in the future is deemed to expensive. Thus in 5 years the business will not be able to adapt to the ever changing environment and TR will be left in the dust by a company that is able to provide the customers what they want, when they want it at a price that TR will not be able to come close to.

Pros

Good pay, good managers, and minimal micromanagement

Cons

Not great 401k or health insurance options for contractors, but that's par for the course

Pros

Plenty of wonderful benefits and the most competitive parental leave I have found in the US job market

Cons

Depending on the organization you work within, you could be working for leadership that expects sales reps to smooth over and fix every single mistake that is made. A lot of these mistakes are because they haven't yet recovered from acquiring new companies and they haven't absorbed CRMs and data correctly. There are many different teams to work with to get the simplest projects done. It feels like the companies values are really in place because they expect the employees to take responsibility for their lack of systems in place supporting them.
