Vantaggi

Co-workers are great. Flex time a possibility (depending upon your dept.).

Svantaggi

I am echoing what another coworker recently wrote, as its the same on this side of the country: They've let go of so many valuable workers so now . . . "WHO IS DOING THE WORK? Over the past couple of months I've been working many 12 hour days covering the eliminated positions. I got the extra work & responsibilities of at least 4 other f/t people. Did I get a raise? NO! Did I get a thank you? NO! Did I get a bravo for my extra effort and hard work? NO! but I did get more meetings and responsibilities, still no raise though. I feel very under-appreciated. That's what makes employees leave, when you have them believing they don't matter (and you really don't care). I am starting to see the early stages of Cengage Demise because there isn't any reason to stay.

Vantaggi

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.

Svantaggi

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.
