Pros
I am really sad to see all of these terrible things about HSAG in these reviews!! In my 8+ years here, I have not experienced anything even close to what these other reviewers have said. Is there a smear campaign going on here?? HSAG has been an amazing experience for me. I can honestly say that I have met some of the nicest, most genuine people at this job, and that goes for both coworkers and management. People are willing to bend over backwards to help you with work stuff AND personal stuff. That doesn’t happen everywhere. I think it’s because there is kind of a “family” atmosphere here, especially in certain departments. People aren’t just there to clock in, work, clock out. They’re there to really make a difference. Also, HSAG does a lot to get employees involved in “giving back” outside of work too, like donating to Boys Hope and Girls Hope during the holidays, or doing Angel Tree. I heard from a colleague in Florida that they almost cried when they saw all the gifts HSAG people had brought in for Angel Tree kids – bikes, doll houses, play kitchens, etc. Those are generous gifts! I’m not surprised because that’s the kind of people who work here.
Cons
And as far as the complaints I have seen on here about management and bullying and that sort of thing, I am really shocked. First, I have never experienced that myself or witnessed it! Actually, I haven’t even ever talked to anyone who feels that way. I’ve worked in a couple of departments and have had great managers who care and who work really hard – they don’t just pass work off. My current manager and the ones before her are some of my top professional mentors!
