Pluspunten

Your work has a big impact across a lot of customers. I believe there is a lot of opporunties to impact your work area and other groups that you interact with. Project planning is interesting as Agile/Scrum is used to create short sprints of work and packaging of efforts into digestible deliverables. The people are great to work with and the environment is open and conducive to innovation. There is flexibility in work schedules and work life balance is important to both direct management and indirect (a couple of floors up). I believe this keeps up the morale around here. Senior management marches slowly forward in good strategic steps.

Minpunten

You are working for a large company with significant bureauracy. The bureauracracy tends to make change difficult to instill in a distributed workforce required to implement the Kronos products. The benefits, while not bad are at market but not above. Compensation is okay as the HR function keeps a tight handle on wages and Kronos does not pay above market at any time. As with a large bureauraacy communication stumbles daily. Each group seems to have another agenda and without strong communication we can and do step on each others toes from time to time. Because our division is on the opposite side of the country from HQ we are the wild children away from the nest.

Pluspunten

There was once a great company named Ultimate Software, it was destroyed by a hostile takeover from H&F, a private equity firm, and a merger with Kronos to become UKG. There are very few Pros since that time.

Minpunten

When this company was Ultimate Software, prior to the takeover from H&F and the merger with Kronos, it was a world class company with top shelf people. The company Motto was "People First" and they truly lived by that motto, never a layoff, great working environment and stealer benefits. Since the takeover and subsequent merger with Kronos, to become UKG this company has taken a path of "Money First", which is understandable given the greedy nature of Private Equity Firms like H&F. They have systematically closed most of the offices across the US and have been expanding their footprint in Noida India, for obvious reasons. The leadership that has been put in place by H&F is clearly focused on IPO. And we all know what that means, clean up the books and make the company look as good on paper as possible. Can you say "Lipstick on a Pig". This was once a great company when it was run by Scott and Viv but now it has gone the way of the Private Equity management and is heading for a great fall.
