Pros

Good benefits. Great coworkers. You work on something new everyday!

Cons

Poorly organized, cliquey and too many cooks in the kitchen. The positive reviews on here were left by employees with strong ties to the company who have been brain washed into the hatch way; or employees who have been with the company since the beginning, and still have the mentality that things can work how they used to when the company was smaller. The turnover rate is insane here as well. Micromanagemt is also a big issue here. They will say you have an "open seating" arrangement where you can see your peers and communicate well with them, but you'll often find management looking at your screen from the other side of the room to see what you are doing. I've also heard management ask about what time people have left for lunch, how long they were gone for, if someone was in the restroom/the kitchen or anywhere else. We are adults, we do not need someone watching our every move. Some trust would be nice. During my time here I've seen people cry, get yelled at, get shot down and just flat out disrespected. At one point the company even brought in someone to do focus groups to try and fix the chaos happening here. It's not hatch itself that's bad, hatch is a unique company with plenty of potential to improve. However, it's certain people working here with higher positions that make the work environment toxic. Management does not realize they are the problem. If they do realize, then they flat out just don't care to change.

Pros

Extremely high growth, fast paced and appreciated being immersed in high growth startup. If you come ready to work, this place is a dream. It is a bit sink or swim so if you expect to just be handed assignments, punch in and punch out, you should look elsewhere. I have since moved on to other beauty companies but am so grateful to have gotten my sea legs here. I was pleased that my brand manager took me under her wing. She allowed me to provide creative input while also simultaneously delivering constructive feedback while I still utilize today. If you are an A or B+player, you will thrive here.

Cons

If you are a C/D player, you will resent the pace. Not much hand holding.
