Pros

Very eager people and thought of making things great, but that is it.

Cons

No real innovation, just leeching off existing tech or products and making it seem like they were doing things. Not really telling clients what is going on, or showing clients how to do things themselves...thus making Pearson's usefulness, consult, guidance, leadership...less relevant.

Pros

Decent pay. Not much else.

Cons

No lunch break, no breaks in general, can’t go to the bathroom for hours on end, the managers’ daughter gets special treatment because her mother is in charge. Constant criticism and unfair treatment.
