Pros

Smart, talented group of people. A division of Pearson Learning Solutions (formerly Pearson Custom) which is part of Pearson Education, a global leader in education, technology and services. Being part of Pearson IS the 'pro'. Pearson Integrated Solutions partners with clients to design total, client-driven education solutions utilizing Pearson's vast wealth of content and products.

Cons

The group has grown quickly and has a fast-paced, workaholic culture (working until 1am and on weekends is considered normal by many). Those on the inside track like to play hard and have a tendency to hire their closest friends and family members (nepotism = unflinching loyalty). A lack of responsiveness from leadership creates a crisis mentality and unnecessary stress.

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.
