Hodes Reviews

I've worked at Hodes for 10+ years, have been through the changes from large public company, to Silicon Valley SaaS startup in Findly, and back to Hodes. Now, because of the success of Hodes as a standalone company once again focusing on omnichannel employer brand over the last 1.5 years, our Parent company has decided to invest more in our space with the creation of Symphony Talent, yet Hodes will remain at its core, something that is critical to the legacy Hodes clients and staff. We finally have a visionary in Roopesh Nair, our CEO. He gets our space being a marketing technologist himself. He's personally met with probably 90% of our clients face to face, and can tell you what virtually every employee's role in the company is. He has created a management structure from the top down that actually holds managers accountable for their staff yet fosters a constant, open and collaborative culture. There are documented employee training and growth programs, there are bonus incentives, monthly all hands calls - things that never existed in the past. And leaders in the organization are a combination of legacy Hodes employees that Roopesh identified / uncovered from anonymity and fresh thinking from the outside. Hodes also remains an incredibly close knit employee base, which is evidenced by the friendships we have with our coworkers outside of work - Two of my best friends in life are former Hodes employees. When you're largely a virtual organization, that says a lot.

Over the past year there have been a ton of changes made that have driven the company into a much better direction than it's ever been headed. The culture is better, respect for employees is at an all time high, and the compensation is getting better.
