Great company, ineffective middle management

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Hachette really values it's employees, the benefits are great though roles often pay the lower end of market ranges so on balance with the modern working environment it's a great company. Large enough to do stuff, small enough to care.

Cons

In certain areas, middle management lack direction and conviction. IT specifically is led by big ticket items based on PR rather then ROI. The business demand a closer working relationship that is fostered by the management.
