Pros

It's a multinational company, so it has a lot to grow and offer.

Cons

It's still establishing itself on Latin America, so it needs a little improvement in some areas.

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.
