Pros

What I’ve valued most: Supportive Team Environment: From the beginning, I felt welcomed and respected. The team operates with a strong sense of collaboration, and I was always encouraged to contribute ideas, ask questions, and learn from others. It’s a workplace where people genuinely want to see each other succeed. Working as an Education Consultant at McGraw-Hill Australia has been an enriching experience. The role allowed me to partner with higher education institutions, particularly course coordinators and academic teams, to support integrating digital learning solutions in meaningful and strategic ways. Strategic Engagement with Higher Education: Building consultative relationships with academic staff was a highlight of the role. These partnerships focused on aligning learning solutions with course objectives and student needs, making the work purposeful and intellectually engaging. Growth in Business Acumen: I had the chance to develop my confidence in commercial conversations and strategic thinking. The role helped me better understand how to align educational outcomes with institutional goals—skills that have strengthened my professional toolkit. Global Resources, Local Relevance: McGraw-Hill’s global reach provides essential tools and insights. However, I appreciated how well the Australian team adapted those resources to meet the specific needs of local institutions. That balance made our work both innovative and practical.

Cons

There are no cons; it was an enjoyable experience.

Pros

Great on-boarding team and process, multiple health benefit options, hefty bonus structure.

Cons

If you like having ZERO work life balance this job is for you. The expectation to be on at all times is never said, just implied and expected. They'll say don't work late or on weekends, but the job needs to be done. So if 40 hours isn't enough, which it never is, given the daily meeting expectations, managing renewal processes, outreach campaigns, and onsite meetings, figure it out. The sales team is KING, and everyone else has to accommodate their personalities. Sales can be rude and argumentative to MANAGERS in front of other team members or in meetings, and they are still employed because they bring in money! The general feel is "Ask questions but not too many questions" This work environment was toxic.
