Pros

The people that work here are great and management says all the right things. The coworkers I have had over my time here have been fantastic. The "mission" that the company has set is a great one, and outwardly they do follow it.

Cons

Upper management is very weak. Every year bonuses and raises go down even though the company grows exponentially. They have consistently paid me below the contract level and performance reviews do not go to higher management, so regardless of your performance, you don't see any compensation. If you go from mid-level to senior, they will not adjust your pay. Be warned. Also, if you become a middle manager for them, they do not pay you fairly for it.

Pros

I have experienced firsthand management’s genuine commitment to my family’s well-being, as they consistently display understanding and consideration for our individual needs. This level of care has fostered a supportive environment where I feel valued both as an employee and as an individual.

Cons

While no organization is without opportunities for growth, HigherEchelon, Inc. actively solicits employee feedback to identify areas for improvement. Management promptly addresses concerns, fostering a culture of transparency and adaptability that quickly turns challenges into opportunities for enhanced collaboration and performance.
