What do you like best about the leadership team?
Some are great. Upper tends to really not care about feasible options for the changes they want to make. They want free, permanent solutions and that's just not possible
There is not much appreciation for loyal employees who have worked there for 30 plus years.
They make personal visits to our locations that are not headquarters
Review from Engineering Dept
Independant and responsiablity rating is very good. Helpfun in action need for a driver at any time.
Great company to work for.
Review from Engineering Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Understand and listen to the needs of the experienced professional staff
Review from Engineering Dept
communicating to employees prior to reducing benefits
CEO is solely focused on quarterly profits even to the point of using accounting tricks to prevent employees from getting bonuses.
Review from Engineering Dept
What is the best part about your compensation package?
The company contribution to our HSA and our profit sharing plans.
Opportunity to be rewarded when the company does well. Healthy salary for the area and similar jobs.
Review from Engineering Dept
I think its fair and just
Harris provides a above average 401K match plan that is solid.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Don't get stock options. Stopped handing out bonuses this year or filling positions that were necessary and left vacant, so everyone else gets to pick up slack. I expect a 10% raise this year due to inflation and some small merit based increase that I'm sure only execs will get. Health insurance ?
Yearly review and or feedback
It is well known that Harris pays less than other similar companies in the CO area. Employees are constantly leaving for higher paying jobs elsewhere
Review from Engineering Dept
I wish the yearly bonuses and stock options were higher.
Review from Engineering Dept
stop cutting benefits and make raises at least as much as inflation.

My team is amazing, we've weeded out the poor performers despite management. We operate very efficiently for our customer.
Review from Engineering Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
They need to stop worrying about who is the most overworked and start pulling their own weight.
Less defensiveness, more real collaboration.
Review from Engineering Dept
Too many meetings when a detailed, thoughtful email would accomplish the same thing in far less time. Admittedly, to craft the detailed email would take the initiator more time but the saved time for the entire team far out weighs the extra work for one person.

The work is fulfilling and meaningful.

I thought the tour was excellent and the questions were focused on my experience.
