Pros

Absolutely lovely people in the HR team, very forward thinking group, constantly working and striving to build and drive on new things - always on a shoestring.

Cons

HR leadership has no strategy or direction. Some poor unchecked behaviours in ExCo and HR leadership. No leadership accountability at that level. The next level (Senior Directors and below) trying their hardest to make things work but not involved in big decisions and just told to do things. A very disempowered "tell" culture. Barely any change management, constant cuts, etc.

Pros

Immediate team members are wonderful to work with. Provides flexibility and remote work (hard to come by now).

Cons

Doesn’t care about its people and more about the bottom line. Layoffs or “restructures” are frequent creating an unstable environment and suffering product quality. Senior management is frequently retiring—can’t help but think they know something the rest of don’t. C-suite constantly being shuffled in and out. AI is being forced as a productivity measure but often requires more time and inefficiencies. But with the library and education sector suffering right now, not sure it will ever change.
