Pros

The people - smart, creative & dedicated professionals that really care about their customers and fellow employees. Opportunity - Pearson has multiple opportunities for advancement within the organization

Cons

Although they are making great strides to improve the sales compensation plan, even more work needs to be done to make sure the sales force is not negatively impacted by the move from print to digital.

Pros

When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

Cons

Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
