Pros
Benefits are great and include tuition reimbursement. Most employees are nice and willing to collaborate or help even if in different departments.

Management usually does consider the advise of team members who know the ins and outs of the daily work.
3 rounds of company layoffs within a 10 year period.
College Board Response

Thank you for sharing your feedback on working at College Board. We appreciate your recognition of our benefits, including tuition reimbursement, and the collaborative spirit among our employees. We hold management to a high bar and are committed to fostering an environment where every voice is heard and valued.
Great coworkers to be around, great benefits, work-life balance was perfect before the middle management layoffs. Collaborating with teams is constant and helpful for the design process.
Cons
They cut the research team, relying on designs to take on that plus end-to-end products, which leaves to heavy work loads and late nights. Deadlines are rather quicker than usual since the reorg.
