Pros

If you are tired of technology, bored by innovation, exhausted by great products and if you want a hierarchy that has no expectation from you then Wolters Kluwer is the place to be! You will be peacefull, doing nothing, if you keep your mouth shut you won't be bothered by objectives or directions. A great place to work if you want to be retired soon.

Cons

Lack of understanding the web product of today (Still not thinking about SaaS on the 2015 roadmap strategy), unable to innovate, unable to create product. Every decision made over assumptions. The feeling of the hierarchy is more important than the expertise of the employees. This is definitively not a place for an innovative persons who like to act.

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.
