Pros

I work with some of the BEST people. Kind, smart, innovative, easy to work with. Most people I've worked with over 10+ years are exceptional.

Cons

ENDLESS reorganizations. Worst job security imaginable. You can pretty much bank on a November restructure every year... it leads to not feeling valued at all, and motivation suffers. There's a lot of time and energy lost getting footing again each time it happens. It's so common that it's actually an inside joke and regular point of discussion.

Pros

Good work life balance. Coworkers are great.

Cons

Layoffs, layoffs, layoffs. If you like layoffs, this is the place to be. Laying off people is the easy way to raise stock prices. Not a good long term option for employment. Just to be clear, I was not laid off. Layoffs are still occurring at Thomson Reuters.

Pros

Amazing work-life balance, vacation time, and maternity leave. Amazing employees who will do anything to help you.

Cons

Don’t expect any career growth - managers will entice you with senior/lead promotions but never actually give them out - there isn’t even any guidelines within the org about what determines whether or not you’re on the right path to become a senior or lead. Thomson’s work policy for working remote is a joke - some departments can work completely remote, some departments can’t work remote at all, and there’s no internal guidelines about how this policy works. Some employees even get preferential treatment and can work completely remote, while others might not be able to even work remote 1-2 days a week. You also shouldn’t expect any significant raises - in the 8+ years I was with TR, I was severely underpaid (thanks Glassdoor!), and my manager always claimed his hands were tied by HR/management. I think my average raises were 1%-3%, even with good performance reviews and continued education.
