Vantaggi

The people you work with as an Assistant Editor are usually enjoyable, and it is not a bad job for a short period of time. It is good experience for learning to work with authors and create your own products (supplements).

Svantaggi

The senior management is flailing around desperately to make money on print textbooks in a digital world and it shows in how they treat their employees. Management expectations go against what is possible and employees are often punished for this.

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.
