Pros

- Nothing good to say about this company.

Cons

- Worst management team in the history of publishing. - Drove the company into near-term bankruptcy. - Upper management had no regard for any of the sales staff or other employees. - Their own greed put them in this situation and now they are going to pay the price.

Pros

You have flexability in this job, you get a company car. You also don't work on Holidays.

Cons

Even though you might think you won't work in summers, you do. You end up always having so much work to do you can never relax. They also give crazy quotas without considering factors such as schools cutting enrollments etc.

Pros

Benefits package is decent, some very talented folks around, interaction with Sr mgmt is ok (but watch your back)

Cons

Technology in use is generally way behind. CLTS mgmt is highly against any type of automation, segmentation of roles is extreme and generally does not favor technologists reaching across and lending a hand, too process oriented, and very political. Promotions generally favor those who brown nose, and not the folks that are able to generate results
