      Pros

      People are great. Good friends there and sharp people.

      Cons

      Been at Pearson for 10yrs and since this new CEO took over, the company has gone down hill very fast. Layoffs this week are supposed to be around 4000. All about outsourcing and only hiring in India and Sri Lanka. Bad time in the U.S. for Pearson. Run far far away.

      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.
