Pros

Impressive potential, on a very competitive market. Theoretical company culture is appealing

Cons

In reality, there is a toxic and very political environment, where people shine for six months and get dismissed No consideration for people at all in the Sales & Trading Unified Platform group.

Pros

Reuters is one of the most trusted news organisation in the world, it attracts some of the most brilliant people in the industry, and salaries are higher than at most other media groups, except for those at it its archrival, Bloomberg. Company culture has traditionally been based on typically British values of respect, decency, fairness, loyalty and humour, but this is gradually being eroded by the new US-dominated management, which means nasty one-line emails are becoming more frequent. Work balance is better than at Bloomberg's. Multicultural, smart and mostly friendly group of reporters.

Cons

The new management, which followed the purchase of Reuters by the Thomson family, seems to be on a mission to Americanize the company, placing former Wall Street Journal reporters and high-paid columnists in key positions and reducing headcounts outside America, mainly in Europe and London. This has created an atmosphere of fear, with most London editors under pressure to please the new New York masters, and in turn pressuring reporters with confusing new policies. Bureaucracy is getting worse, employee morale is low. The common feeling is that Reuters has lost its way, and every new management email is met in newsrooms with a collective snort of irony.
