Pros

There use to be so many pros to working for Cengage Learning but just recently the company has taken a turn for the worse and will probably be a sinking ship due to some decisions that is leaving a bad taste in a lot of peoples mouths

Cons

Recently they have let go many people in our organization and replaced them with one of the largest outsourcing firms "Cognizant" to which some of the employees of many years were "rebadged" as a Cognizant employee or terminated without severance pay. This company use to be a company of value, integrity and loyalty to its customers and its employees however software is rushed out the door with glaring bugs, customers reach out about bugs/security issues and most are swept under the rug while, and people are leaving without being replaced leaving the remaining members of teams left with more work than they can handle yet the same deadlines are expected causing shortcuts and poor software to be developed.
