Thread regarding Pearson PLC layoffs

Still too many rep layers as well

There are still too many rep layers as well. DSS, SAE, AE, ED, Generalist, the list goes on. And it's also impossible to truly track the impact/sales on each, so those on the SIP get severely overpaid , a la the old "LSC" and custom roles. If everything is truly going to IA, there needs to be an IA team that covers the entire country, not an SAE that primarliy sits at home and covers 2 states. So for that reason, see you all here next year. 6th year in a row of botched layoffs. Pearson needs to rip the bandaid off like Cengage did and truly make cuts, they resisted Generalist for years, and here we are.

Too many managers? There's no one left! Talented reps & specialists just not being used well. Too much time wasted with data entry. Still working like publishers when we're supposed to be changing. Still acting as customer support to bookstores. So sad to see everyone generalist & knowing nothing now. All in person value lost now. Might as well get rid of all Field.

Exactly. Too many management layers and too many rep layers. They have still yet to address the problem.
