Pros

I work in IT and I honestly have none. Even the benefits are only average. Last year many did not even get a cost of living raise but w have been told we may get a raise in 2017 so that's a positive!

Cons

Layoffs continue. Outsourcing continues. Any IT employee not in management is being replaced. Projects are months being schedule. I have been with Pearson 15 years and this is the worst it's ever been. The UK where this company is run from has no clue.

Pros

Decent pay. Not much else.

Cons

No lunch break, no breaks in general, can’t go to the bathroom for hours on end, the managers’ daughter gets special treatment because her mother is in charge. Constant criticism and unfair treatment.
