Quality Engineer Intern

"I interned for Pearson this past summer as a Data Modeler/Quality Engineer Intern. My supervisor guided and challenged me to complete new tasks and also allowed me to venture off and perform my own analyses. Additionally, I had to communicate to other employees overseas, which presented many challenges. The overall experience was incredible, and I would recommend working for Pearson."

Pearson Employee

"Pearson's POLS department is staffed with wonderful people. The work load fluctuates and is a bit frantic at its worst due to client demands. Most coworkers are extremely smart and innovative which makes for great teamwork and a high quality of work. A large company lends itself to less personal leadership, but its nothing out of the ordinary with a for-profit company."

Software Developer

"Good company to start your career. Pay is decent, but not competitive. Not a fast-paced and challenging environment. The company lacks boldness to expand the business. Underperforming stocks for many years. They are trying to sustain the current business. Not an innovating company."

"I worked at Pearson Packaging for 6 months, until they had a 10% company-wide reduction in staff. I was the last Sr. PM hired so was the logical pick, sadly. I enjoyed the company, my role, and my co-workers."

"This is a great company to work for if you are just starting out and looking for a place to get good office experience. Since it is a larger corporation, feeling like you are making a larger impact is not always there, but teams are friendly and you will learn a lot."

"I worked for Pearson packaging for 15 years, in that time the company has changed immensely. The company was once known for being very employee oriented and family oriented. In the past 6-8 years, the company has become less employee friendly and more corporate oriented. Pros: pay and benefits are very good cons: communication and commitment to employees."
