Pros

Great benefits and great people. Work is really interestng. Two years ago I would have given Pearson 4 stars.

Cons

Company is in a death spiral. Continuos layoffs the past two years. They're outsourcing every department. A once great company to work for is now a terrible company. Morale is unbelievably low.

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.
