Harvard Business Publishing reviews

Not much career advancement. Seems to be a lot of contract work in other departments. Hours are fixed. However, management will accommodate if you have any medical appointments,

This has been covered before, but there seems to be a disconnect in terms of overall leadership of company. * "Consensus-driven" approach where it seemed like middle management has no oversight by senior management or accountability in actually making decisions; affects individual performers get their job done who have to fight their way to get things accomplished. * Hard to blame individual leaders (strong likeability as individuals), but something in culture (silos?) keeps concrete directives from being made to resolve interdepartmental conflicts. To be fair, this could be part of greater Harvard culture seeping into HBSP. * Covered before, in certain departments idea of advancement, education, mentorship seemed like a non-topic ("too busy") * Internal processes can be inconsistent, some seem to be heavily documented yet not grounded in reality of changing projects or just non-applicable due to non-communication between stakeholders * Technology groups were often highly dysfunctional (difficult to call balls and strikes between shared resources IT and business unit groups, to be fair, this showed improvement).
