Pros

Casual work environment, dedication to improve textbook content and make ancillaries accessible to students and good 401K plan and benefits.

Cons

Salaries are significantly lower than competitors which creates low morale. Editorial needs to understand technology more, they seem to be stuck in the "old school" way of thinking and can't seem to understand that technology is rapidly changing.
