We definitely manage by numbers. Numbers tell a story and that story helps us make decisions. Our total compensation package is competitive and our philosophy is different than many organizations. We make a higher investment in benefits, culture and development and thus our base compensation is not above market. We are conducting compensation analysis to ensure we stay competitive.

Dream Realization

Pros

One of the reasons I feel Harris and its Business Units are great place to work is our values. Harris has 10 core values that we live and breathe by, with Dream Realization being one of them. I have a manager who cares about my development, we talk about my career path and goals in a open honest and transparent way, which is appreciated. And I know I am not the only one at Harris who has had this same experience.

Cons

compensation could be a bit better, but we are offered a great benefits package.

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.
