Pros

The Christmas party was very nice

Cons

This was the most exploitive and toxic work environment I have ever worked in. It stems from top management who operate with the notion that they own you because you work for them. This is not the workplace for you if you value your self-respect and ability to enjoy a meaningful life outside of work. What I’ve personally experienced and/or witnessed at HQ: • Blatant disrespect and public humiliation of employees and partners • Executive management regularly yelling to get points across • Teams held onsite all night to get deliverables done • Executive management harassment, bullying, and coercion • Regular email and phone demands after hours and weekends • An obsession with perfection that drives rework demands 20x over for the same deliverable • Written compensation agreements deliberately withheld at executive management discretion • Employees called away from preapproved family time to return to work • Fearful and disgruntled employees • Miserable employees feeling trapped due to H1B sponsorship • Very high turnover, very low morale I expect there will be immediate backlash by the COO to discredit this review on any grounds, similar to what he has done for all reviews that paint Harmonia in an unfavorable light. It exemplifies a fragile ego and how profit, perception, and self-preservation are held in higher regard than accountability to uphold a sustainable work environment that respects individuals.

We do expect our employees to strive toward perfection, and we do indeed work hard, but we are committed to generously rewarding strong performance and work effort. And while not everyone shares the same level of passion for our company, our clients, and this drive towards success as our Executive Leadership, we do value and respect each of our employees. Please feel free to contact your Human Resources team directly if you would like to discuss your concerns further.

Pros

Flexibility with working from home, company socials and parties

Cons

Expected to work long hours and if you don’t, managers will guilt trip you for not working overtime, very little/no compensation for working extra hours, employees usually eventually get fed up and quit or become depressed, the CEO seems to only have that position to get help get more contracts for being woman-owned (the real CEO being the CEO’s husband). After doing a bit of research and from my experience at the company, it seems that they low-ball bids just to win contracts.

Yet another anonymous review to "retaliate" back at the company because you were let go for poor performance. Its full of inaccuracies, including the bit about the CEO and your "research" and "experience" that we low-ball bids. Your professionalism shows. Best of luck in your future endeavors.

Pros

There are no Pros to discuss here

Cons

I worked as FT employee. I worked as Automation engineer in an AUTOMATION TEAM. Unfortunately other team members who don't know basics, were projected as automation team to the client. Program manager when I worked don't know anything and her goal was to get cheap labor. All manual members were projected as automation team. Pgm manager was under the same impression about me too that I dont know anything and came to do automation. She offered me very less salary even I was permanent resident. They advertised 10k more to a h1-b candidate which was very unfortunate. After joining, I guided atleast 6 candidates on a daily basis. I was the ONLY ONE who knows working with frameworks, not even the team lead don't know about automation frameworks and they were doing automation. It was so crazy at that time. They wanted very cheap labor to work. The reason I joined even for low salary was, the scene that happened in the interview time. They projected like they were working on some rocket science technology and I thought that was true and thought of learning some thing. But after joining, on day one I came to know that it was just a makeup that happened and I came out within 6 months. After 3 months, 1 day pgm manager called me and asked that whether I can take up lead responsibility. I asked her about the salary and she said NO, then I asked her about the title. She said NO to that too. But they want to project me as a lead and bill more money from the client. Then I said no for that. Immediatly pgm manager hired a candidate who I interviewed and she was absolute 0 to be projected as a lead.Based on this you decide whether to join or not.

Thank you for your "review" and your "advice." We are an equal opportunity employer and we do not discriminate on the basis of citizenship, race, gender, etc. In fact our only criteria is capability and performance. Also, despite your contentions, your review contradicts itself. On the one hand, you say we are willing to pay more for H1 visa holders and then on the other hand you say we are looking for cheap labor! i am sorry but your review is not supported by factual information. Here are the facts: We pay market competitive salaries based on capability, experience and performance, coupled with performance and annual bonuses. Our benefits are top notch. We have an employee retention rate of over 90% and we continue to outpace our competitors. So perhaps those are the facts one should take in mind and "decide whether to join or not."
