Pros

Remote work from home job

Cons

The training is terrible. They throw you into the job with absolutely no idea what you’re doing. They also don’t except medical emergencies as a valid reason to miss work.

Pros

Cengage offers a ton of resources whether that be through continuing education for employees or just the amount of divisions and help you can get across the company.

Cons

Pay was low and benefits weren’t great. I felt I outgrew my role quickly and was unable to move up which led me to find opportunities elsewhere. They froze the cost of living increase during Covid which also wasn’t great.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your experience at Cengage Group. I appreciate your positive remarks about the range of continuing education opportunities and support we provide to employees. At Cengage Group, we strive to ‘Put Learning First’, it is a core pillar of our ethos, and we believe in its ability to propel people forward. Regarding compensation, our HR team continuously reviews our complete total rewards offering to ensure they remain competitive and align with market standards. While COVID was a period where we made some difficult budget decisions, our merit increase budget has remained market competitive since 2022. I am sorry to hear that you felt limited in your role here. I believe that a big part of every career decision is to determine whether the company you work for is the right platform for your unique skills and attributes. In that spirit, I wish you the best in your next endeavor. Best, Michael Hansen, CEO
