Pros

Flexible hours PTO Policy Benefits start day one Smart people in the businesses

Cons

The CHRO hired a few years ago runs her organization like a fascist. She thinks she makes progress, but at the expense of everyone around her. If you're in HR I'd think twice about joining this organization. She has created an environment of fear which has tricked down to her direct reports and further down to local HR teams. HR for HR has turned a blind eye to her behavior and not sure Nancy Mckinstry is even aware of the state of the HR organization.

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.
