Pros

-Remote Work and good benefits. -Pay is alright but slightly below average.

Cons

-Most customers that do not care about anything other than price of materials to students and will actively avoid using texts or courseware from a publisher. Most opt for free materials. -Upper management changed sales goals and strategies almost yearly and seemed to be just copying whatever McGraw-Hill and Pearson were doing, constantly playing catchup. -The entire sales team was given a 30% year over year sales goal, regardless of previous performance, for several years. (I assume to cover their over-investment into their learning software no school wants)
