Pros
This review is not for those pros.
Cons
Hatch’s ‘Manifesto’ is basically a zero-tolerance for anything that isn’t billable. Doesn’t matter what you do or where you sit in the company — if it can’t be charged to a client, it’s not allowed. Ever seen a company requesting juniors from year 0 100% hours to client ? Little training, career development, or any kind of professional investment. Every October they run ‘Manifesto Day’ — everyone’s have to join and, you guessed it, bill all the hours to project. The company’s did not got your future in mind. All they care about is squeezing every last billable hour out of you, which absolutely screws the juniors, nightmare for young professionals. I’ve seen them flat-out refuse visa sponsorships for people who’ve given ten-plus years to the company. They literally hand their best people over to competitors, given Sponsorship is nonbillable to Aussie law, the words from the mobility ‘even two dollars of sponsorship , you’d need CEO approval.
