      Very capable employees and high respect for individual

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      High work ethics within the project management team and excellent leadership. The company has a high dedication to respect personal lives but in return is asking for full dedication to the job. HR is very supportive and benefits are good. Overall it sometimes has the feel of a big family besides the size. Pearson always strives for improvement and the application of latest methodologies and technical developments.

      Cons

      Opportunities to grow are limited. There are very capable senior managers that have to make up for other seniority that take advantage of the company size and pose a bad example. Because of the growing speed of the company departments start viewing themselves as gate keepers, introducing their own rules and forgetting to view the company as a whole. Communication and working with each other are lacking in some places. Between some groups is a disconnect with makes it challenging to fulfill promises made to the customer and deliver to contract.
