Our Story

The Hatch story started when good friends Adam Jacobs (Ex THE ICONIC Founder) and Chaz Heitner (Ex Zip Co-founder) came together to build something they were deeply passionate about.

Both founders believe that traditional hiring processes are broken and limit people from finding work that’s a good fit for them. Since founding the company, Adam and Chaz have built a team that shares their mission and are both confident they will continue to build an impactful global company for many years to come.

Glassdoor rating

Last 12 months

3.7

Pros
  • Good compensation, monthly commission, and discounts on your plan and accessories
  • Flexible working and reasonable hours
  • Growth opportunities, motivation, and support for career development
Cons
  • Employees have expressed concerns about a perceived toxic company culture, including favoritism, bullying, and a lack of support from HR, which they feel is more aligned with management than with staff welfare.
  • There is a sentiment among some employees that career development opportunities are limited, with insufficient training and a lack of substantial commission for sales roles, potentially impacting job satisfaction and financial growth.
  • Staff reductions and outsourcing have reportedly led to increased workloads without corresponding increases in pay or promotions, contributing to stress and a feeling that the company values cost-cutting over employee well-being and knowledge sharing.
