Pros

Generous benefits and paid time off. Cenage cares about its employees and wants everyone to feel like they belong. They are as transparent as a company can be and they include all departments in quarterly town hall meetings to discuss the health of the company and what is upcoming in the next year

Cons

There are not many cons. Every company has its "cons" I have worked in higher education for over 20 years and there is not much I can complain about at Cengage when I compare them to other higher education companies and institutions I have worked for Cengage is far above the rest and really cares about employees and their satisfaction with Cengage. You just do not find that very often.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review about your experience. I am pleased to hear that you enjoy working here and are satisfied with the benefits that we provide. Our employees are a top priority, and we work hard to make sure that everyone feels valued. Our company-wide First Friday conversations, mentoring programs, continued investment in learning and development opportunities and wellness days off are great examples of this. I believe transparency, trust and inclusivity is what differentiates Cengage Group. I appreciate your input, and I encourage you to reach out to me directly with any suggestions on how we can continue to improve. Best, Michael Hansen, CEO

Pros

Company has some interesting approaches to the market and in the past they seemed value employees. There are some good employees there and there was, in the past, visionary leadership, but the people with the vision and leadership skills left the company a few years ago.

Cons

The company actively de-values employees. They had a project they called "Project Horizon" where they told all employees they needed to cut costs, so the company was going to have multiple layoffs over 3-5 years - but nobody was allowed to know when, where, or why - - just one day large swaths of people would be gone. That hung over everyone's heads - for years, and is indicative of how Cengage values employees - it doesn't. Everything is about trying to secure new funding and prepare for an IPO, so they stopped investing significantly in the products about 3 years ago and that's about when they stopped acting like they cared about employee wellness as well.
