McGraw Hill reviews

MHE used to be an amazing place to work, but when the company was sold, upper management was continually changed in hopes that the company could catch up technologically. They then began to hire management who knew nothing about the business and then rapidly promote them. Marketing in the Professional division is a circus, they hire confused consultants to lead the charge. If you want to live through constant layoffs, never ending management changes, no inside promotions and answering to circus clowns this is the place for you! No I am not a bitter past employee, just saddened at what a once great company has become. However, there is one caveat, men do rise through the ranks more quickly, especially those who are yes men. If you meet this criteria, apply, your career might skyrocket here.

Even after the McGraw-Hill split, there remains a fear to try new things or try things differently. MHE tends to be conservative when it comes to innovation. Human Resources has lost its two-fold focus: help management meet business objectives and ensure employees receive are treated civilly and that each staff member has the right to grow and advance within MHE. Now, it appears that the focus is only on helping management meet business objectives. Perhaps, HR needs new blood. It's sad that MHE is solidifying its reputation as being unable to be flexible and to reach out past its competitors to build the most robust, validated curricula for all students.
