Vantaggi

BEFORE Savvas, Pearson was a place to be proud of, lots of talented and devoted people who sacrificed larger salaries at other orgs to stay. Great products, focus on customer (teachers and students).

Svantaggi

-Savvas (headed by Bethlam Forsa) furloughed a massive group of talented and dedicated people in 2020 for 6-8 mos in some cases. Within 1 mos of ending those people's hopes of getting any salary back that year, they gave "bonuses" to the rest of the company. Perhaps a better method might have been reducing everyone's salaries by 10% so that people who have been with the company for 20+ years retained their jobs AND those left weren't then handling two people's jobs. -Benefits USED to be good at Pearson, Savvas continue to get worse and worse. -Raises? Figure max 2.5%/yr over an 8-year period of time (across the board). Not even to cost of living standards. Negotiate your salary well before coming on board here! -Nepotism. Shown at its worst in 2020, but pervasive through 2021, more at mid-management level (Director) promoting friends without any repercussions except talented people eventually leaving.

The pace can be quite fast, especially during peak seasons, which may feel challenging at times. However, this also creates opportunities to learn quickly, stay engaged, and be part of meaningful, high-impact work.
