Pros

I made some good friends, and I rarely had to work long hours. Was able to take vacation, etc., without getting a guilt trip.

Cons

Management was nepotistic, unethical, and a joke. "peon" level workers got no respect and had no chance to advance. The work was either stressful and impossible deadlines, or tedious, dull, and insultingly bland.

None. The existing Product Leadership is highly effective and perfect as is. Don't change a single thing.

Creating an environment where people feel trusted, can contribute, and continue to develop is a key part of how product teams succeed.

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.
