Pros

Good work/life balance. People from middle management downwards are great at "keeping the show on the road" and really dedicated to the product.

Cons

People who worked on the Thomson Financial side are just waiting for the Reuters people to get shot of them. I understand the place has become massively more bureacratic since the merger. Rumours that Reuters regards itself as a branch of the British civil service appear to be true.

Good pay, good managers, and minimal micromanagement

Pros

Some of the direct Managers and team members but only because everyone sticks together because there constantly change and unclear expectations from upper management.

Cons

*Unclear commissions spread across multiple tracking systems that don't line up including sales done on various salesforce portals. Many teams members gave up trying to track or follow up because we were so busy. *They treat businesses like dollar signs and employees like numbers. *They "laid off" managers on the Tax/Audit team, some who had been with the company for decades and were the most supportive of their teams. *They are focused on buying up other software companies and products without having any protocols or streamlines in place for them, not to mention they still haven't properly done so for acquisitions in the last 5+ years.
