For quick iterations, you have ghci. You just edit your files, type :r and it will recompile only necessary files, which is really quick (and I miss it in most other REPLs). Similar with incremental compilation. But if you need to compile huge project always from scratch, of course, you will suffer.
There have been work on making haskell to have deterministic build to speed up compile time, and compare to scala, I find it way faster (in my current company, we use scala). But note that if you start using stuff like template haskell, your compilation will slow down.
