Pros

Overall full of great people and exciting leadership. Keenly aware of the transformation of education (and society!) and actively positioning itself to stay relevant and valuable, even leading much of the change.

Cons

Size can be an issue. Lots of overlap of responsibility and many have an addiction to conference calls with 20+ people on them.

Pros

Great benefits, high level of autonomy in position, good company values. This is a great place for working mothers and fathers, as flex time can be arranged, management is understanding of the fact that unexpected things come up involving family.

Cons

Communication between senior management and reps is almost non-existent. Sales numbers are handled by one person and not double checked. We receive our sales performance numbers in March and only have 24 hours to dispute errors, not enough time for a thorough review of the information, especially when some reps handled more than 200 accounts.
