Pearson Employer Reviews

Good company with great benefits. Too much turnover in employment

I filed paper work daily as well as data entry in Excel. The work atmosphere was great. I enjoyed working there because I was able to move around and get to know everyone. My co-workers were excellent. There wasn't a hard part at all.

Convenient Cafeteria, great employees. Good company over all

I love my job and the learning experence I have hadlearning to work fast and accuratly. picking and packing overnight ship internet orders

Everyday, you would clock in then report to a specified area for a team meeting before reporting to your assigned position, which for me was the packing area. The work was not always stable and reliable, and there was often some downtime. My manager was not very agreeable and often had disputes with those who worked under him, and my coworkers were – more...  often not willing to work as a team, which was one of the most difficult parts of the job. – less

A typical day at Pearson consist of hard labor to keep it simple. Depending on which department your in daily productivity for an equipment operator consist of 250 to 280 cases daily. Productivity is only allowed to increase never to decrease. At Pearson you learn how to communicate with different cultures and how to operate heavy equipment safely. – more...  The hardest part of the day is waking up in the morning, i live in the NY and Pearson is located in Cranberry NJ. That means i have to wake up really early just to commute and make on time. The best part of it all would be your co workers. There's a lot of great people working there, there's plenty of snitches and people who want to do harm instead to good deeds but every work place has those. At the end of the day the people around you including some leads make your day and help you smile. One of the things that make it Pearson not a great place for a career is there temp program. You start as a temp with no benefits for 6 months, Pearson does this to save money by not paying for employee benefits. You might be a great employee, but you are most likely to get laid off after your hours are completed. – less

This was a great environment to work in for me, and I was able to excel and work rapidly. I have nothing but good things to say about this company.

when I was sworn at by a colleague in full view of my team and I complained to my manager he said he did not hear it. He also hired up three men and no women...

Pearson just recently changed their pay scale from per hour to per diem. Reading the results of the students responses makes me realize that our future resides in children that will not be ready for the world.

A day at pearson is like never knowing which way the day is going to begin, to many changes during the process after most of the employees have already began working. I've learn from this company that middle management and upper managers need to be able to make business decisions for business improvements and agree on them together and a positive manner – more...  and also be able to work together as professionals from other departments.To many managers wanting to make decisions for overall company improvements causing stress throughout the pearson company.Also working for pearson allows you to meet wonderful working people from all over the world which I enjoyed the most about this company and I do believe that Pearson can become a good company to work for some day. – less

My – more...  Co-workers were fun, energetic, focused and all around excellent to work with.

The hardest part of my job was learning and administering new exams/policies/and procedures to customers. My Audio times/reviews were very challenging. However, once I became more familiar with the exams and took every bit of constructive critisism as learning tools, applied them to my best ability, I became an excellent Customer Service Rep for the call center and each day was an achievement.

The most enjoyable part of my occupation was the chance to be part of one of the best company teams out there. To contribute and represent the company and to help people all over the country further their education and improve their lives...Every moment was enjoyable and my difficult tasks I took as a way to improve my profession and my life. – less

Pearson is a very good place to work if you have a good manager. My manager was extremely caring about personal development and growth as well as getting the job done. I was downsized when upper management decided to decentralize a lot of the tasks previously centralized to that department. I'd love to find another job at Pearson again.

Pearson has been a great company to work for. There are fantastic managers and interesting projects that I've worked on.

Co-workers and management all were a pleasure to work for. Pearson is a great global company with many different divisions and potential opportunities for career progression.

This company is very competitive and brings you many alternatives to fit your task into your own schedule

Good Place to learn. Great Exposure to new technologies and variety of teams
