Pros

Remote work Good PTO Some managers are flexible with hours

Cons

Pearson is undergoing a major shift to become “one Pearson” and remove all of the smaller brands. As a result, they have implemented several new policies that make it extremely difficult to do your job. Additionally, they have been laying off with little to no notice. This place used to be great and the poached Accenture employees have killed it.

Pros

When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

Cons

Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
