Pros

Repping here with over 20 years experience in the work force for big IT and pre and post-IPO companies. If you're considering or being considered for a role at Harness, thank your favorite supreme being. The interview process is very transparent and honest. Everybody I spoke to was warm and personable. I felt like I could speak to them about anything - not just work stuff. Once I joined it was more telling everything in the company's core values is in every employees DNA. Your happiness as a human is what's put first - not the bottomline or anything else. Come find out for yourself! Harness is the best place to work!

Cons
