Pros

The people. Everyone I have encountered are pretty great. The work life balance is done very well here at cengage.

Cons

The sales structures are broke, new initiatives are never given time to see if they work before things change, and there is disconnect from the front lines to the executive team.

Pros

You sell education products so you can feel good about the product you sell. However, the digital products do suffer from reliability issues so that has it's own affect.

Cons

High stress and work/life balance is not good. It takes 60 to 80 hours per week, nights and weekends to keep up with the demands and stress put on you.
