      Pros

      Remote work Good PTO Some managers are flexible with hours

      Cons

      Pearson is undergoing a major shift to become “one Pearson” and remove all of the smaller brands. As a result, they have implemented several new policies that make it extremely difficult to do your job. Additionally, they have been laying off with little to no notice. This place used to be great and the poached Accenture employees have killed it.

      Accenture Takeover

      Cloud engineering
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I cant think of any.

      Cons

      After Omar took over, he brought in several former Accenture colleagues, and the culture shifted dramatically. The company began operating more like a consulting firm — heavy on ideas and frameworks, light on execution. Many of the people who were actually capable of delivering were let go, which had a noticeable impact on results.
