Pluspunten

The product it sells reflects what how the company behaves. Gratitude and recognition are feeding the spirit of teamwork, respect and communication inside the company. The product is fantastic and we get to use it every day. It really improves your mood and day when you receive a recognition award. Which is often. This is extremely valuable. People in engineering care deeply about what they do. And care deeply about improving what needs improving. Leadership also has lot of talent in the team and knows what needs done to achieve goals and mission. Haven’t met a single person that I could have something negative to say. Cares about the employees and there are lots of events and packages delivered to the door step. Some of them complete surprises. The company is growing and there are tons of opportunity to make a difference and change things. Work-life balance is well respected. Diversity and Inclusion ERGs are really really strong. Benefits on par with industry average.

Minpunten

Tech org is understaffed. There are plans to grow and to address but recruitment also has its challenges. Because of understaffing the org focuses mostly on pushing new product and keep addressing customer needs. Very little time left for research, innovating experiments or working on technical debt items. Because of understaffing, leadership is also consistently under fire with high priorities. Leaving very little time to finish what is started and focusing on long term initiatives/strategy. Comp package below average and no stock plan yet.

Pluspunten

Genuine human connection and collaboration. Great benefits. Autonomy and ability to share ideas that may create real change, at any level. Access to great AI tools and plenty of encouragement to experiment and learn.

Minpunten

At the end of the day, we are a business. We sell software. Sometimes in order to do that, we have to pivot direction fast or create deadlines that feel rushed. We aren't perfect - but you'd be hard pressed to find a company filled with better people who actually care about the work, the company mission, and about each other.

Thank you for sharing your feedback and for recognizing the strong relationships, flexibility, and benefits that many employees value at Workhuman. We recognize that customer-facing roles can be fast-paced and that experiences can vary across teams. As our business continues to mature, we're investing in stronger planning, clearer prioritization, and more effective ways of working across the organization. We'd also note that while recognition awards are an important part of our Total Rewards philosophy and are reflected in employees' Total Rewards statements, they are separate from base salary and bonus compensation. Recognition is first and foremost about celebrating meaningful contributions and impact, while also providing employees with tangible rewards for the great work they do. We know there is always more to do, and we remain committed to listening, learning, and improving the employee experience as we continue to grow. Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective.
