Pros

-Remote Work and good benefits. -Pay is alright but slightly below average.

Cons

-Most customers that do not care about anything other than price of materials to students and will actively avoid using texts or courseware from a publisher. Most opt for free materials. -Upper management changed sales goals and strategies almost yearly and seemed to be just copying whatever McGraw-Hill and Pearson were doing, constantly playing catchup. -The entire sales team was given a 30% year over year sales goal, regardless of previous performance, for several years. (I assume to cover their over-investment into their learning software no school wants)

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.
