Pros

Benefits are very good at Pearson, Salary is not bad. New telecommuting offered - if lucky to get on board with this program it provides a lot of autonomy and flexibility.

Cons

Management lacking in functional areas - that is, project managers not gifted as functional managers also act as functional managers. Don't expect to grow much or be respected and treated well by management.

Pros

Business is profitable, people are generally nice. Everyone is generally very busy and there is opportunity to do productive work.

Cons

There is a lot of finger pointing from upper management, company is quick to dismiss people without realizing the knowledge they are losing.
