Pros

Your work can have an impact, and Huron does quite well in healthcare and higher education.

Cons

Zero salary transparency. Management does not provide salary ranges or peer lists, but they insist they've being very generous. They also talk about targeting market median with "total compensation", but their "total compensation" number includes the amount they pay in for healthcare, taxes, and a full bonus with a funded bonus pool. At the same time, they very clearly only provide the full bonus to top performers, so the majority of employees are intentionally paid below market median. Performance reviews and promotions are driven by a small group of influential individuals, and their personal opinions are the only things that matter in employee evaluations.

Pros

- Unlimited PTO - Some very fun and enjoyable people working there - Company culture leans more startup-like - Ping pong, great snacks, beer on tap

Cons

- HHSG is one of the worst companies I have ever seen in terms of management. They are absolutely abysmal at creating software and managing. - The worst employees are regularly promoted to the top, and once the employees are at the top they are unremovable - Product management is unbelievably inept. They are so inept the entire company is aware of this, yet due to decades of tenure from this team they are unable to removed. I was literally told by upper management to accept that we will never have good product management. - Promotion structure involved giving you the responsibility of the new job with no pay or promotion backing it with "promises" of the pay and promotion in the future - Poor stewards of technology: Their main product and biggest cash cow was neglected, shoved aside, and exploited while the underlying infrastructure of the product crumbled. Quick features and bugfixes to save contracts. Never did they take the time to refactor the product or fix serious infrastructural issues.
