Pros

The people are the biggest pro. It's refreshing to work in a company where the employees are passionate about the company mission - to help students learn. That said, the benefits are a close second - fantastic package w/many insurance options and generous vacation. I've found the organization to be very flat, with folks open to new ideas and suggestions; also, they promote from within. The research that goes into the products is impressive and the company is trying to be more innovative, The offices have good perks, like free coffee. I know it's a little thing but it's ultra convenient and makes life easier. They're also in great locations (1NY plaza has a lot of public transportation and food options.) There are also regular employee events.

Cons

The salary could be better. But this is not uncommon in the education/publishing industry. They could be considered a fast-follower when it comes to edtech . They're doing better in terms of research/innovation lately though.)

Pros

Organized team, flexible workflow, good beginner publishing experience

Cons

Got this job a month before the pandemic and the transition to remote was easy and organized. My contracted role was extended serveral times and the team was very helpful as references for future work.
