Pros
Great benefits; time-off, etc. Working at home is never a problem when necessary. Great management. I feel empowered to get my work done without having my manager looking over my shoulder. You really could not find a better company in my opinion for work/life balance. I really respect the CEO and Executive Management team to steer this big ship into the right direction. I feel I have all of the tools I need to get my job done effectively and efficiently.
Cons
Cengage needs to invest in its most important asset: its people. I feel I am underpaid for my position in comparison to what I see others doing at competing companies in the same or similar industries. I love it here, but frankly if I had to pick one reason why I would even consider leaving at this time it would only be to increase my salary. The last two years adjustment didn't even cover the hike in the health insurance contribution my family must pay in, so year-over-year I'm losing. It would be nice to be paid industry competing wages.
