Wolters Kluwer reviews

First thing that you notice are how old and unkempt the place looks. Cubicles and carpets are old and worn, walls and doors need painting, office furniture is outdated and uncomfortable. Employee training is lacking, formal training on software and policies is fine, specifics of the jobs have to be learned from people who spent more time on the job and knowledge sharing is a real problem. Most seriously, higher management is dishonest about the goals and future direction and communications are uneven and sporadic. More worrying is utter dishonesty with which management handled process improvement, people who spent years developing and building the business were discarded like useless pieces of office furniture. Opportunities for advancements are limited, most get promoted from within by having connections and ears of sympathetic managers. Improvement to electronic infrastructure were undertaken when old systems could no longer be sufficient, getting help with computers or other office equipment required calls to outsourcers, problems often were not resolved for days.

First of all, CCH facilities are completely outdated and gross. For a company posting profits like they are, they should be able to pump some money into their offices. Other downsides include nepotism, favoritism, and being misled on advancement opportunities. Management is absolutely most concerned about their paychecks vs. how to create a great atmosphere for their employees. A lot could be done to boost productivity, say sales contests and recognition for a job well done, but there is a serious lack of these ideas. A little goes a long way for employees who feel appreciated. Also as a sales rep with CCH, I saw plenty of sales channel conflict. Field Sales Reps are the precious babies of CCH while other sales personnel don't matter nearly as much. CCH is willing to pay FSRs a great amount of money towards their commissions, so if you're looking at outside sales, this would be a good fit. All other sales professionals in the company won't see nearly as much money. I would also say this company currently has the mentality that it's an employers market and anyone who doesn't agree can go work elsewhere. CCH could be revolutionary with it's attitude to the workforce, but it chooses to hold on to outdated ideas.
