Jensen Hughes reviews

Forget unlimited vacation time. I got questioned from the manager when I used 2 sick days from obvious, sickness, got scolded for using 4 hours of leave which I ended up using for work anyway, Unlimited means nothing if mgmt give you crap about using them anyway. This company forces you to have billables, but mgmt does not care that there is no work to bill to and there is no work, so as an engineer I get pulled in more to create a marketing material etc... Mgmt promised the world when they brought me on board.. not a thing was kept. Promotions are based on who mgmt favor. Frankly, I wake up each morning miserable, wanting to jump off the bridge, I had so much expectation from this company but I don't think I'll be able to stand it anymore.

From my viewpoint, senior leadership did not trust, value or act on the experience and leadership of the companies they acquire. Instead they believed they knew best and tried to force the business model they knew onto these companies. This resulted in talent leaving and low moral for those who tried to stick it out. I believe, JH bit off more than it could chew with all of their M&A activity. This came at the expense of a heathy and thriving work culture and is instead replaced it with a very traditional, authoritarian, top down, fear based hierarchy. And while there is seemingly plenty of opportunity for those looking for a challenge and want to grow, unfortunately, because decisions are made so high up, it’s hard to make any impact unless your in senior leadership, so most people are along for the ride.
