      Pros

      Some of the people in the corporate office are nice They have a fancy coffee machine in the break room

      Cons

      Executive and senior leadership espouses collaboration and being One Harris and then turns around, consolidates their own power and does not promote and practice a collaborative team mentality. The organization is trying to be an enterprise but is lacking severely in established processes. For the processes they have in place they let the different office sites and departments ignore them and operate as they see fit. The environment is very toxic, you have little support from senior management and the only way to accomplish anything is to fight against co-workers and other departments. Their Human Capital department will likely respond to this with platitudes but they are among the worst. I've witnessed little care for the employees, retaliation when they are questioned on practices and multiple examples of general ineptitude, the most glaring of which is the deployment of the new HR system that was done exceptionally poorly of an "enterprise" organization

      Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We apologize for that you had a negative experience. Harris is always improving upon our processes and are evolving the ways our departments interact with one another. The experience you had does not reflect our goals of transparency and collaboration. Our executive leadership team cares deeply about improving processes and developing trusted relationships between employees. We sincerely appreciate your feedback and will take that into account as we continue to make changes.

      Pros

      The guys designing and delivering the work, and the estimators, all great.

      Cons

      Administration, operations, internal and HR communications. 1980s if not worse. Limited technology, no best practices. Stone age. If you are a female in any of these departments you are a slave at best.

      Pros

      Compensation, Perks, Benefits --- THE PEOPLE!!

      Cons

      Convinced "One Harris" is a marketing ploy versus reality. Lack of communication and (interdivisional) collaboration on jobs has been a recurring problem. Have a long way to go before Harris being a "destination workplace" is more than an internal statement. Seen a recent change of Harris becoming more "Top Heavy" and losing it's sense of "family" culture. Have heard negative/toxic discussions about certain employees coming directly from managers, and we have recently let go of many loyal/long-term Harris employees. (both field and office employees) Outdated technologies in certain areas, and lack of planning/direction/strategy around the newer technologies and how they can further benefit Harris.
