Pros

Over a decade old company with strong fundamentals and very stetrgitic. Very strong leadership and structured in meeting global market. Higher officials know what they are doing and process oriented company. Company has its legacy in sustaining in global platform.

Cons

The place where I worked was highly political. Lack of ethics and morals. HR is biased and lacks fair judgement. Management do not know how to use the resources in right direction. Most of the managers are not qualified. No opportunities to grow further. HR nor the management care about the employees . People get promoted based on the race, materialistic aspects of the candidate. Performance reviews and awards are pre planned and unfair. No recognition and encouragement to the employees. Management intentionally gives poor reviews and put employees on PMP in order to roll them off from the employment. No social activities at work. If employees complains to HR about the management, HR and management makes the employee resignation as a termination of employment from HR stand point without thinking about employees reputation. Most of the managers, they work for their personal growth rather than bringing value to the company. Recent employee resignations happened to due low employee morale.

Pros

Wolters Kluwer has some genuinely amazing people working for them and offers flextime for good work/life balance

Cons

Recently began pushing to "inhouse-outsource" as much of the core business functions as possible to their new service center in Pune, India. While many of my Indian colleagues are exceptional people, the constant turnover with overseas contractors and haphazard hiring and training process means that many of these staff members are woefully underprepared and set up for failure. As an example, I had to train my Indian contractor replacement before I left - while he was a lovely person, he had zero training in or experience with US payroll, benefit or tax structures despite that being approximately 50% of my core job function.
