Thank you for taking the time to write a review. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts on Cengage Group’s transformation from an old-school publisher into one of the largest education technology providers. That has certainly been our focus over my tenure – to set the business up for continued success by putting the needs of students first – and I appreciate the role that I’m sure you have played in that evolution. As we continue to grow, it’s the hard work of employees like you that helps drive our innovation. Regarding compensation, we strive to offer competitive, equitable compensation programs that recognize and reward strong performance. Our HR team closely analyzes the market to ensure that our pay practices remain competitive, and we also conduct pay equity audits across gender and other protected groups to ensure fair pay within our organization. We always appreciate feedback around this however, and I strongly encourage you to reach out directly to your manager or HR business partner about this so we can discuss your specific situation directly. Best, Michael Hansen, CEO
