Software Engineer - Anonymous employee HID Employee Review

Very good work life balance. Company is privately owned and the management knows how to keep the ship running. If you want a secure workplace with stability, reasonable timelines, and good people, this is it.

Lots and lots of acquisitions can make for a slightly messy business structure.

As a Talent Acquisition Partner at HID, one of the biggest strengths is the people and the collaborative culture. There’s a genuine willingness across teams to support hiring efforts and partner strategically, which makes recruiting more impactful and not just transactional. The company has a strong global reputation in identity and access solutions, which helps attract high-quality talent and creates meaningful conversations with candidates. Leadership is generally approachable and supportive of TA initiatives, and there’s a clear focus on innovation and growth, especially in evolving markets like mobile credentials and identity technologies. You also get exposure to a wide range of roles across regions and functions, which keeps the work dynamic and engaging.

Like many growing organizations, processes and systems can sometimes lag behind the pace of business. This can create challenges in recruiting efficiency, particularly when balancing multiple priorities or navigating evolving hiring structures. There can also be variability in hiring processes and expectations across different business units, which occasionally requires extra alignment and stakeholder management from TA. At times, workload can be high, especially during peak hiring periods.
