Pros

The only good part about Packt is the facilities team, who are extremely capable of handling their job.

Cons

The list of cons keep increasing with a company like this: 1. The management includes a series of dimwitted individuals, who call themselves competent and capable. 2. The management is filled with unethical idiots who do not know anything of how to do their job. But are well trained in the art of training dogs and Pigs. 3. The HR team is filled with idiots who have no idea how to run an organization. And will deliberately hold back alot of information to keep you confused. 4. The HR team (If you've read any of the previous reviews) comes up with new ways to withhold the company from paying its employers. For example, taking out new policies just to withhold the salaries of half the execs, dissolving departments overnight (yes this is true, 7 ppl sacked in a day!!). All in all, as many of the current employees even predict, the company as a whole will be brought to its knees by the end of 2020.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review on Packt. It's fantastic when you see a 5 star review and no negative comments. I did just want to highlight the 4 stars on both benefits and compensation and career opportunities. Firstly on the benefits, we are currently working on some ideas that have been put forward to us in our survey we conducted by the team and will have an update on these soon. For the career progression element the team have been working non stop to allow everyone here at Packt to take a career review meeting and gain valuable feedback and discussions around the next steps and how we can support you going forward. Please make sure you check out the page on the intranet and book yourself in for a Packt career review so we can help support you in your career with us. It's also great to see the positive nature of team members within Packt and how you have been supported and everyone is there to help you even in the most challenging situations. Finally its great to see your positive comment on flexibility. Here at Packt we know that this is what makes a great working environment for our team members. Thank you for your review.

Pros

There are no pros as of now, maybe other people had better experience but I didn’t

Cons

The timelines are insane The editors are not editors, they don’t check the material, they just push everything as fast as possible, missing a lot in the quality
