Pros

Like most eDiscovery vendors, Haystack offers flexible and “unlimited” PTO, as well as quarterly incentive bonuses and the work is fully remote.

Cons

The different areas of the company felt very disjointed. There was not a lot of communication between departments and it felt as though there was animosity within my the project management group towards other departments.

Pros

There are no pros at Haystack ID

Cons

Low hourly wage, no overtime, no benefits, empty promises of work end up being weeks of no work tied to projects that end with little work.  Of all the E-discovery companies, this is by far the worst.  Every time I sign up for a project at Haystack, I regret it, because I end up tied up, to a project with low hours, long pauses and little regard for the reviewer.  It seems other companies have have an upper hand over the law firms, and don't allow for them to keep reviewers hanging for undetermined periods. Haystack seems to be bullied and controlled by law firms and allows them to do whatever they want, hence hurting the reviewers at the bottom with no work.  Managers have a copy and paste email they send to reviewers "I was once a reviewers, and know how frustrating it is to be in your shoes" but they do nothing about it.
