Who did you have do the job? A friend or garage? Some brake jobs are tricky. You can't do them without a scanner connected to the car. If they didn't open the bleeder valves to push back the calipers, this could lead to problems also. I was taught to always open the bleeder valves to release the fluid, instead of pushing it back to the master cylinder. Even in the old cars(60'sand 70's). New cars, it's even more important to do this as it can blow the ABS pump seals.

Did you put fresh fluid in the master cylinder? I really think you still have air in the lines. To bleed manually, start with the bleeder the greatest distance from the master cylinder, car running, helper pushing down about half way on brake pedal and releasing 3 times, on 3rd time, holding pedal down to half way depressed point while you open the bleeder valve. Repeat until you are sure all air has been flushed out. Check master cyl reservoir level often, because if it gets low and you **** air into the system, you have to start all over again. Go to wheel next greatest distance from master cyl, repeat above, working your way to wheel closest to master cyl last.

Sounds like you will have to bleed your brakes again, but thats not the problem og hard brake peddle, need to check your power brake booster, sit right in back of master cylinder, check make sure it has vacum going to it, also to test it with engine off, press on brake peddle three time, then state engine with foot on peddle, peddle should go down a few inches, also with engine of peddle should feel soft for three pumps, if you have none of this , power brake booster is bad.
