Pros
The benefits are great and the people are even better. You're surrounded by more resources than you could possibly imagine. If you enjoy working in an environment where you're constantly surrounded by bright, talented individuals, HBS would be fitting for you. HBS truly appreciates the concept of a "work-life" balance.
Cons
Though the benefits are great, the organizational environment overall is bottom heavy (not enough managment positions). That being said, it's difficult to move into higher level position. If you are a union employee you don't receive rasies based on performance (you only receive what the union is able to negotiate). The negotiated salary is okay (3%), but that just covers the costs of inflation.
