Pros

PTO Accrual is very good

Cons

Company acquires at-risk businesses and tends to cut costs (i.e. staff) to make them profitable. As an employee it wasn't a comforting place for long term job stability.

We acquire all types of businesses, and have done so for more than twenty years. We do run our businesses profitably as that protects our customers and employees and products.

Pros

Tons of opportunity to learn to manage your own business. Collaboration with others in same role is fantastic. Company training seminars were top notch. Benefits were decent. Flex time very allowable

Cons

Very "clicky" meaning if you are not in with the "right" people that is a downfall for your career. Harris is too much about the MONEY and not the Clients and relationships that have been built prior to Harris taking us over. Their values that are preached daily are NOT instilled with upper management such as "Respect for the individual" and quite honestly should be abolished. Leadership has made some poor choices which are ruining the business units morale and over all growth.

Interesting business model but not good for long term growth

Pros

Salary and benefits were good. Harris owns multiple companies in different industries so there maybe opportunities to move around. A lot people work remote, so if you like not having an office that is a plus.

Cons

Harris grows by buying companies, or part of them, that are in trouble and making money by cutting costs. How do you cut costs? Some ways are getting rid of offices and equipment, other way is by having quarterly/monthly layoffs. The focus is not on how to grow the individual business but instead what can we cut this month to make a profit. Then next month what else we can cut to make more profit. It's a business model that has been working for them, they are making money, but it is at the expense of their employees and customers.
