      Pros

      Great co-workers, flexible work arrangements. Sometimes the work is interesting. There really isn't anything else I can think of that make it a pro.

      Cons

      To the reviewer who suggested pay raises for just employees in San Francisco--that seems a little unfair. Cengage has offices spread out across the US, including workers from home. We are all struggling. They need to improve compensation for many of us. I'm one of those single workers--with a child--and we barely make it on what Cengage pays. I've gone backwards instead of forwards with salary and responsibility. Likewise, opportunity is given to favorites. Worker bees are ignored for advancement.

      Pros

      Company has some interesting approaches to the market and in the past they seemed value employees. There are some good employees there and there was, in the past, visionary leadership, but the people with the vision and leadership skills left the company a few years ago.

      Cons

      The company actively de-values employees. They had a project they called "Project Horizon" where they told all employees they needed to cut costs, so the company was going to have multiple layoffs over 3-5 years - but nobody was allowed to know when, where, or why - - just one day large swaths of people would be gone. That hung over everyone's heads - for years, and is indicative of how Cengage values employees - it doesn't. Everything is about trying to secure new funding and prepare for an IPO, so they stopped investing significantly in the products about 3 years ago and that's about when they stopped acting like they cared about employee wellness as well.
