Pros

Health benefits are excellent and best I've experienced.

Cons

Lack of trust: CEO doesn't care for remote / work-from-home employees. He stated as much during an all hands company call, suggesting work-from-home employees are prone to take advantage of this arrangement and are not as productive. Age discrimination: Is alive and well at Pearson. CEO even went as far as to compare the performance culture of the company to a sports team that has to bring in younger and stronger players to be competitive. Unqualified Leaders: Sr. Execs with no understanding of the markets they work in are often put in charge of essential strategy decisions. Pay: It's only OK. Base salaries tend to run a bit below industry averages. Some positions are eligible for annual bonus, but it's very unclear how those bonuses are structured.

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.
