Pros

Honestly, very hard to find these days. Historically it was the mission but it’s not really clear what that is anymore.... Some of the people are amazing, have always had incredible colleagues.

Kontras

Too many to list. Terrible management &; poor communication (it’s the worst kind: pretence of being open & transparent & wanting to hear from staff but then making decisions & never fully explaining or rationalizing them & never responding to concerns raised by staff, let alone addressing them). As a previous reviewer said there is no real strategy or plan for how to move forwards (main plan seems to be to save money by getting rid of people, sometimes with RIFs and sometimes by framing a cull as a reorganization, Sometimes saving money by taking ages to backfill vacancies, all the while talking about some kind of miracle new innovation & related revenue stream - only trouble being no one knows what this is).

Thanks for taking the time to share this, and I’m sorry that your experience feels so negative. We’ve been through a lot of change as we balance mission and sustainability. While we’re seeing the tangible benefits of this, it’s been tough at times. You’re right that we need to further improve how we both share information and respond to staff concerns – we’ve just launched our new staff Change Coalition and are focused on concrete ways to improve the information cascade. We’d love to hear from you if you have specific ideas – we all want PLOS to be somewhere that we feel proud and excited to work.
