Pros

If you like working in a fast-paced environment and solving human-centered problems alongside intelligent and empathetic colleagues, you’ll enjoy working here. To know that the work you’re doing is directly and indirectly improving the lives of seniors and their families, as well as those of our amazing caregivers, is a feeling that can’t be beat in my book. The people here are also great to work with; they come from all different backgrounds but seem to be connected by a desire to make social impact. The culture here is one that is supportive and collegial, and there has been more emphasis placed on employee engagement as of late. There are ample growth opportunities for those with great work ethic who put in the time and effort to master their role. The fringe benefits like free lunches, good health insurance, stock options, etc. are also appealing.

Cons

Since we are a fast-growing startup with lofty goals, the further you progress in your career here (think manager and above) you may need to do work outside of core business hours. You can still have a good work-life balance but you’ll need to be more intentional about setting boundaries and practicing good time management. This isn’t unique to Honor but is something one should be prepared for.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a thoughtful review. We are proud that you are so engaged with our Mission of providing better care for our Parents. Also, it is great that you have experienced a culture that puts People first! We understand that working for a rapidly growing organization can come with challenges and pain points and often that can come at the cost of work/life balance. The last thing we want to encounter is our employees experiencing a workload that is unsustainable. We hope and encourage all employees to find ways to unplug and disconnect from work and take time off so they can come back engaged and refreshed. Also, we take feedback from employees very seriously and are always looking at ways we can improve as an employer! Stay tuned for our annual engagement survey in the next month.

Pros

Coworkers are great because you're going through the same thing together. With that being said, proceed to the cons

Cons

Where do I start? - Poor Management - Poor Leadership - Poor Operations - No room for growth - Extremely small pay - No overtime pay but expected to work 14 hour days - Zero work life balance - Can't go to your Manager with a concern without being placed on a PIP because they're ready to fire anyone for no reason - Turning Homecare into Amazon - Can care less about the Caregivers. PAY THEM MORE!!!! They claim to but they can really care less about them - To put the cherry on top, they like to approved requested time off and then reverse it after being approved and tell you that you can't go on your approved time off because you need to work holidays.
