Unaware and don't care about internal talent

Pros

Name brand in the education industry, brand opens doors. The company relies on it overly so and ignores innovation at their peril.

Cons

Upper management often makes knee-jerk decisions based on emotion and a swift need to "repair losses" in the short term. This leads to a backwards, cost restrictive way of thinking about growth in a marketplace that is growing through investment and technology, not the bottom line.

Pros

They use the latest technologies, and follow the latest agile methodology. Part of Washington Post which is a well recognized company.

Cons

Very very incompetent upper management. Absolutely no team building, absolutely no information sharing, upper management will spend on personal perks while developers and non management employees were treated as second class citizens.
