Growing and Changing - Delivery Lead Emerald Publishing Employee Review

It was okay. Can’t complain

Empty space to fill here

give me a minutes. I'm thinking....

Hands down the most dysfunctional place I've ever worked. I attribute most of this to location and poor leadership. The office is nowhere near a publishing talent pool so most new recruits are woefully inexperienced and there are no efforts to fill the gaps in knowledge. There has never been a unifying vision for the future of the company and the board are about 30 years behind in their understanding of scholarly publishing. Senior managers are grossly overpaid when compared to junior staff and are constantly battling for influence. I have been asked by several Emerald recruits for my feedback on the company and my response is always the same: don't do it!
