Comment by Mike Griffin: I have worked for Pearson for several years now (on a consulting basis) on many software packages (supplements to their textbooks). The people I have worked with have been great to work with. It is a very professional environment and I believe this would be an excellent opportunity to work for a large corporation in Boston. I believe their offices are very close to a T-stop. I have traveled to Pearson headquaters on two occassions in the past few years and have taken the red line from Quincy/Adams station.
