Pros

Leadership, leadership, leadership. I can't say it enough. Leaders make an organization what it is. Treating employees, partners, and clients with care and respect, going above and beyond to listen to staff at all levels, actually taking immediate action with feedback received, providing opportunity for growth for all who want it, and setting a visible example of diligent hard work. HR Works is also growing fast, and in this environment, that means the ability to provide stability for staff and families. During COVID, there were no layoffs, remote/hybrid work has remained an option for most staff, growth continued, and technology was invested in heavily. The environment at HRW is truly like a family, I've never felt so grateful to be able to work with some of the most hard-working, intelligent and thoughtful people that I know everyday. The best part is that each day gets better as you get to know your coworkers and the company's brand grows with its people!

Cons

Growth always comes with challenges, personally, professionally and in business. Growth is also necessary and anything worth having is always sweeter after difficulty. When you have a team dedicated to growth, you have to work as a team to reach your goals together and that's exactly what happens at HR Works everyday.

Pros

They value work-life balance, the pay was good, the benefits were good, the management listened and incorporated feedback, and the people who worked there were kind.

Cons

Not really man cons, we were always busy, but that's not a bad thing.

Pros

A few coworkers were great!

Cons

When I first started, everything was presented in a very positive light—almost like “sunshine and rainbows.” However, over time, the reality became much different, and it reached a point where I dreaded going to work. I worked in the Leave Department, and unfortunately, the managers and supervisors lacked the necessary skills to lead effectively. It wasn’t until I transitioned to a new role elsewhere that I realized just how unhealthy the environment had been. In my current position, I feel valued and respected—something that was missing before. Suggestions for improving efficiency or processes were not welcomed and often led to being singled out. One of the most inefficient practices was the requirement to complete a daily timesheet detailing how much time was spent on each account and task. It felt more like micromanagement than meaningful oversight. My new employer is able to manage client billing without tracking every minute of the day. The culture was overly invasive, and feedback often came in the form of criticism rather than support. Employee well-being seemed secondary to profit margins. There were no bonuses, the pay was below industry standards, and overall morale suffered. Unless there is a significant change in leadership within the Leave Administration and Benefits Department, they will continue to lose talented employees.
