      In my eyes, PLS went from an exciting opportunity to a big disappointment.

      Pros

      PLS is part of Pearson Education, a company well respected world wide. Great benefits and a great location in Back Bay. For the most part, great peers.

      Cons

      PLS management is disappointing and the HR department is a joke. Difficult to move up within the company. Pace of work is inconsistent--summer is extremely busy with slower times coming in the fall and winter.

      I'm grateful for the opportunity of working for a company that is very understanding of work-life balance.

      Pros

      - great work/life balance - able to work from home - some professional growth opportunities - great benefits

      Cons

      - not a very enthusiastic environment/culture - leadership not connected or knowledgeable of products across the company. - constantly "re-inventing" the wheel every time there is a re-organization - at least one major re-org a year

      Pros

      becoming innovative now as an organization. generally 'nice' to employees, and most imp- one of the most inspiring CEO the corporate world will every find.

      Cons

      still archaic in some areas though has made great strides in the last 3-4 years with Dame Scardino as CEO. Some group are fiefdoms!
