Pros

There is a positive work environment and there is a good work/life focus at Cengage Learning which is greater than other companies.

Cons

Large companies like Cengage Learning often have additional layers to their business reporting levels that you will not find in smaller companies.

Pros

As a freelancer, the pay is quite nice compared to other freelance gigs. Furthermore, the jobs/projects have been fairly consistent, without huge gaps in between.

Cons

As a freelancer, you obviously lack the benefits of full-time exployment, such as predictable income, benefits, and so on. Sometimes a project may be cancelled prematurely by a client, and neither you nor Cengage/Gale can really do anything about it.

Pros

There is a pretty good work/life balance. Most people are nice and respectful. The building is really nice and well taken care of.

Cons

Not a lot of diversity within the workplace. Some jobs are looked down upon or looked as being not successful or worthy enough. You're not successful if you're not in such and such position thought process.
