Pros

They're investing a lot of money in their products. A lot of young, fun staff.

Cons

Part of Cengage Learning is becoming National Geographic Learning which they are evangelical about, yet they do not have the infrastructure or the expertise to make products suitable to carry the National Geographic brand. The company is sales driven, not quality driven. Sales and Marketing drives everything (a pro for those in Sales and Marketing, a con for those who understand development of quality products). Senior management is over-worked and makes knee jerk decisions which severely and negatively affect the work life of those lower down the scale. Lots of nasty office politics and backstabbing behind closed doors.
