Pros

I'd consider myself midway through my career and I can easily say with 100% certainty that this is the best company I've ever worked for. The list of pros is long but a few things that make it the best include the hard-working, engaged, committed and collaborate people that I get to work with every day. I feel that my day to day work is interesting, meaningful and impactful. Cengage is an exciting place to be - we're growing and the work we do is innovate and life changing.

Cons

There is a lot of change but I understand that this is necessary to stay relevant and growing.

Thank you for sharing your positive experience working at Cengage Group. It's great to hear that you have been able to achieve a healthy work life balance and that you find our culture to be transparent and supportive. Regarding HR communications, we work hard to ensure that all points of view are considered. We do this through many channels including our monthly full team and cross-team meetings, monthly all staff learning sessions, and our “pod” structure and open Slack channels. I encourage you to reach out to me directly if you have more ideas of how we gain even stronger alignment. I appreciate your feedback as we continue to improve. Best, Jeri Herman, CPO
