Vantaggi

-Most of the managers and AD's are friendly -Company is growing

Svantaggi

-The majority of the positive reviews are clearly written by Harnham and are untrue and do not provide an accurate reflection into the company -Although managers and AD's are friendly a toxic culture can still be seen within the company. Everyone stands up at the exact same time for lunch and you looked at if you stand up a minute early. If you try and leave at 17:30 (the time your contract says you are meant to finish) you get spoken to and again receive dirty looks -The fact that managers and associate directors are friendly would suggest that the toxic culture comes from the managing director who makes no effort to know you unless you're billing triple figures AND stay late every single night -Generally just not the friendliest place to work and the job comes with an incredibly high level of micromanagement -People lie about their KPIs as they aren't checked and get praised for it but if your honest and don't manipulate your stats you don't look good -Will be searching for a new job in recruitment as the money is good but unfortunately Harnham is not a good place to work which is a shame as nearly all of the managers are very friendly and the company is only spoiled by a few money hungry managers that only care about filling their own pockets

Vantaggi

With Harnham for almost 2 years as a contract employee. Hiring process was very easy. Was approached on LinkedIn, had a phone interview with the recruiter, then a phone and onsite interview with the contracting organization. Time from contact to hire was 3 weeks. My recruiter secured a higher hourly rate for me than my initial ask, which was in their best interest, but was a welcome bonus. Recruiter remains my main contact at the organization, and has always been easy to deal with, helpful as can be. They offer some benefits to contractors. The health insurance is super expensive and I skipped it. They offer a 4% match without vesting as long as you contribute at least that much - which was completely unexpected. There is also another match that is vested over time, but you'd need to work there for a handful of years to benefit.

Svantaggi

Expensive health insurance, with no HSA option

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. We take concerns around professionalism and workplace culture seriously and are continually working to ensure Harnham is a supportive and inclusive environment for all employees, We encourage employees who have feedback about their experience to share them with our HR team if they feel comfortable doing so, as open dialogue helps us better understand issues and continue improving our workplace. Should you wish to follow up on any of the points raised in your review, we would be happy to continue the conversation directly. We would like to clarify one point regarding layoffs. Harnham has not undertaken company-wide layoffs as described in this review. The only workforce reduction in our recent history occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic, when widespread hiring freezes across the technology sector significantly impacted market demand. At that time, we unfortunately had to reduce a number of entry-level positions in response to those unprecedented market conditions. This took place approximately six years ago and has not been repeated since. While we recognize that every individual's experience is unique, we remain committed to supporting our employees' development and providing transparency throughout their careers with us. We appreciate your contributions during your time at Harnham and wish you the very best in your future endeavors.
