Pros

It is a large corporation that had considerable assets before they sold a number of them off. They have nice offices in a number of different locations. They offer a bonus plan.

Cons

It is a large corporation, no idea what talents and skills you have, no appreciation for hard work, leadership, and development efforts, headed in the wrong direction shifting to education services from publishing. They are outsourcing all the traditional publishing roles.
