Pros

I recently started at Pearson, moving over from one of their virtual schools. As a large corporation, you have to accept some delay with HR and IT, but my team is really great and has made the transition easy. Benefits appear to be good, with several options for health insurance. Tuition assistance, 401(k) match, good PTO, reimbursement for an office chair for your home office, monthly book allowance, etc.

Cons

So far, just the delay in HR and IT assistance has been the most frustrating, but everything eventually gets done.

Pros

Work with some (not all) smart people. The honeymoon was good (wait till it over). Keep up with tech. Professional development.

Cons

Where Can I start? Wish I have more time for this. * "We need more money! I have an idea, Layoff!". I've seen three. Only a fool would believe the 'management did not know about this'. * When I started working here, the team is 50% women, they all left in the span of 1 year, the last one who did not, stayed for the visa and the promotion. * Bro-culture: only promotes people who excel at navigating corporate politics. One dude who does not even know the notation of matrix got promoted to 'lead' a tech team, imagine that. * During the last round of layoff, guess who they kept: 4 white men (including the dude). * What is with every 3 months, we get a mandatory class on sexual harassment? I will let the readers draw a logical conclusion. * I know one HR person will reply to this review by copy-pasting a standard answer from the template they have since 1917, denying any of the above (just like their so-called tickets), my suggestion to that 'poor' human is: Start applying for jobs yourself because you are next.

Pros

Colleagues were great. Management not so much.

Cons

I'd not recommend the remote offices. Employees are not treated equivalently as headquarters. No oversight of rogue managers. No consideration for loyal employees. It's all about the money! Not about students learning.
