Pros

This is probably the best company I worked for. The atmosphere is amazing and my co-workers both same level and upper management were really supportive and good people to work with. It's a relaxed yet professional environment where you always have an opportunity for personal development and feedback was constructive so I really learnt a lot in a short period of time. Good work/life balance.

Cons

It happens in all big companies like Pearson - there were some communication issues between departments and sometimes ideas get lost in a process. The remuneration is not amazing compared to other companies but you get to travel a lot and that sort of makes up for it if have passion for travelling.

Pros

When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

Cons

Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
