Business outlook
Pros
Interesting people, especially at the lower levels. Good experience working on large, cumbersome teams. Learning opportunities are made available, but no one has any time to take advantage of them.
Cons
Management is generally, untrained and not too bright. The smarter employees leave. The Pearson management style is made up of blind spots, passing the buck, shirked responsibility, and pseudo-management. My manager was very nice but as ineffective as you can imagine. Giggled a lot. High-school level typos and spoke with a lack of basic grammar knowledge. She didn't respond to problems, took no action when support was needed.
