Served me well as a company to "get foot in the door" in IT - Software Developer Hatstand Employee Review

Great recruitment process - short yet thoughtful. Onboarding was great, lots of company pride/swag. Unfortunately, fades out over time.

Little to no career guidance. They place you with a client that dictates your everyday experience. Unfortunately, I was placed in an investment with a lot of attrition and low morale. Hatstand did nothing to amend this or provide any real support - either by instilling its own supportive environment or providing a mobility plan for roles beyond this client. They tried to connect you with older consultants who often rambled about their own experiences rather than providing any form of mentorship. Overall, Hatstand lacked any sense of identity or company culture in the US market.

People were good, office was clean and some good people in the main office in the UK.

Whatever it was, management was inept and did not expand the client base and relied heavily on 1-2 major clients. Invested a lot in marketing but not in substance and tried to convert their image to "consultancy" with no legit track record. Converted commission program to quarterly bonus so they could point to not meeting targets" as reason to stiff all; resulting in a mass exodus. Lost major client and quickly sold the company which had little value.
