Pros

I've worked with Cengage for almost 7 years, and I can't speak highly enough about the organization. The CEO (Michael) cares about the company, and more importantly, the roughly 5,000 people who make the magic happen. Cengage listens to each and every employee to help further company ambition and objectives. This was clearly evident during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond regarding remote work (now standard for most employees). From a personal perspective, I've been able to climb the corporate ladder with great mentors and feedback - you just have to put in the work! I've met some great people, and collaborating with different teams has been a joy. In addition, management cares about your goals and will help you get there. Call be a loyalist, but I'm dedicated to Cengage after what I've seen us accomplish. Join us, you won't regret it!

Cons

My only "con" would be that we are not a public company, but rather backed by private investors. Hoping that we are listed on the U.S. Stock Exchange in the future like other top publishers.

Thank you for taking the time to reflect on your work experience. I appreciate the positive remarks about our culture. My goal, along with the rest of the executive team, is to foster a culture rooted in transparency and candor, especially during times of uncertainty. I am also pleased to hear that you are surrounded by mentors and colleagues who have provided support and encouragement as you have grown in your career with Cengage Group. Regarding our status as a private company, I feel strongly we can serve our customers and foster a strong, driven culture as both a private or public company. Thank you for your 7 years of dedication and service. Feel free to reach out to me with more ways that we can support our employees. Best, Michael Hansen, CEO
