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.

Pros
  • Great team and colleagues
  • Flexible working arrangements
  • Good benefits and remuneration
Cons
  • Some employees have expressed concerns about the leadership quality and supportiveness, feeling that management could be more nurturing and that the company culture, which includes a preference for in-office work, may not align with everyone's personal values or circumstances.
  • There are feelings among staff that the compensation may not be commensurate with the long hours expected, and that the work-life balance could be better, with a sense of pressure to prioritize work over personal time.
  • Employees have shared opinions that the company's systems seem outdated, which may contribute to a sense of instability within a volatile market, and there's a sentiment that this could be leading to a higher turnover rate.
