Honor reviews

A new on-call policy was sprung on all engineers without any warning. Engineers are on-call for a week at a time about every 4-5 weeks. During this time, you are likely to be woken up by alerts that will auto-resolve moments later. My job description and offer letter didn't include this duty. I have a real life, a family, and health concerns that make this extremely burdensome to me. Where does Honor get off thinking that they can steal almost 8 weeks - or two months - of my sleep? I now have entire weeks where I cannot be fully present in the lives of my children, my wife, or my church. The arrogance is astounding. If these alerts were limited to true emergencies, which hardly ever happen, then I might be able to swallow it. But waking me, my baby, and my wife up for automated monitoring alerts that autoresolve moments later? This is totally unacceptable. Get it together Honor. Honor is a good place to work. But it's not that good.

1. BAD managers (micro managers) most leadership roles are filled by people who have worked for Honor 5+ years, they promote based on politics and if you are a “YES man,” ( they love that ) They never hire qualified experienced managers who have done the job themselves, so imagine the frustration that causes for the employees. The good managers who do have experience and know what they are talking about when presenting ideas are not taken seriously. 2. layoffs! They are good about quietly laying off employees, I was around for three and felt like an episode of Chopped throughout the day. They refuse to backfill so the workload will fall onto your plate without any additional compensation. Doing the work of 3 people? they don’t care, GET IT DONE! 3. Extreme levels of burnout! They will work you to the bone, ask you to give up weekends, assuming just because you are working from home you have no life or need a break. You will never feel like you have accomplished anything, you are only told to do MORE! 4. Contributing to Poverty! Care pros are paid a low wage, and the RGMs are so surprised when potential Care pros find a better paying job, or ghost. Honor expects the best quality caregivers but do not want to pay for good quality caregivers. They just expect other departments to find ways to get them to want to work for us. Then blame everyone and everything when they don’t workout. Personal note: My time at Honor was not easy. I thought this was the job of my dreams! after COVID hit, the company basically just went downhill. Although we were all adapting to working from home and many changes were happening at once, upper management still had high expectations and wanted to see us work harder and do better than ever. After the second lay off, I was given more work and no resources to succeed or even help, I was drowning and I was clearly ignored. I was just expected to DEAL WITH IT. I was constantly being blamed for things that was out of my control and being told it was not my fault but was my fault? I even got a bad performance review when upper-management was to blame for not providing the help and resources I needed to do my job. If you are thinking of applying to Honor DON’T, please move on and forget this company. If you are a current employee please know there are better jobs out there and you do not need to put up with the toxic environment Honor has created.
