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.

AI insights

Employee feedback

AI summarised feedback about Luxury Escapes, based on Glassdoor company reviews.

Glassdoor rating

Last 12 months

3.8

Pros
  • Skilled colleagues to learn from
  • Friendly and supportive environment
  • Free lunch 4 of 5 days
Cons
  • Employees have expressed concerns about the company's approach to technology and project management, suggesting there is a tendency to prioritize speed over quality, which may lead to increased stress and the accumulation of technical debt. Additionally, there seems to be a sentiment that management is not always effective in handling timelines and providing support to navigate through the company's rapid growth and changes.
  • There appears to be a work culture that may inadvertently promote overworking, with instances of long hours, forced crunch times, and a lack of flexibility in work arrangements. This environment could be perceived as one that values visible productivity, potentially at the expense of employee well-being and work-life balance.
  • Some employees have voiced dissatisfaction with internal communication and career development opportunities, mentioning unfulfilled promises regarding pay raises and a lack of transparency. The customer support department, in particular, might feel undervalued and pressured to focus on quantitative metrics over quality customer service, contributing to a high turnover rate and a sense of hierarchy that contradicts the company's stated values.
