Pros
PROS:
1. HCM is committed to encouraging and supporting the education team's professional growth. While at HCM, I had the rare opportunity to consistently work on varied and challenging projects that enabled me to promote meaningful change in the postsecondary sector. Kristin Hultquist’s commitment to my professional development was demonstrated not only through the ample opportunities she provided me to hone my skills, but through her generous one-on-one-coaching and mentorship. In short, because of HCM’s value-centered leadership, my tenure at HCM was a period of exponential professional growth.
2. As a woman of color, what I appreciated most about working at HCM was the leadership’s commitment to equity – externally and internally. During my tenure at HCM, Kristin Hultquist and Terrell Halaska worked thoughtfully to cultivate an equity-minded organizational culture through efforts such as engaging independent experts to review and improve internal practices. Put simply, more than any other work environment I’ve ever served in, I personally observed HCM’s leadership authentically “walk the talk” to recruit and support a diverse staff of experts.
3. Beyond offering a generous salary and benefits package, HCM is a mission-oriented firm that genuinely cares about its employees. Kristin Hultquist and Jeff Stanley went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure I was able to navigate a period of medical challenges, both professionally and personally. Their kindness and genuine concern for my health was a huge comfort through a difficult time. In short, in keeping with Kristin and Jeff’s commitment to creating an organization that allows individuals with disabilities to thrive, HCM supported me when I needed it most.
