Pros

ServiceNow provides an amazing service/solution. We have given customers the opportunity to be better. The change that customers experience is so profound that they are excited and willing to share that message with everyone. Its very easy to support something that inspires so many outside of the organization.

Cons

Change is inevitable at ServiceNow. As the company begins to grow (and grow at a rapid pace), there is a constant flux of individual contributors, management, and senior management. If you've been there for any length of time, there are only a handful of familiar faces from when you first stepped through the door. As much as the company is embracing the change, they do not embrace the idea of investing and growing individuals. Those individuals who have been lucky enough to see promotion and engagement are mostly graded on your ability to socialize and less about your ability to perform the job.

Pros

ServiceNow had a differentiated platform and products. Early on the culture had a startup energy that was rare for a company this size collaborative teams, ownership, and a sense that people actually cared about outcomes. Working with large enterprise customers on complex workflows was interesting work.

Cons

The ServiceNow I joined was a different company. As headcount increased, so did the bureaucracy, layers, and friction that rewarded politics over execution. The layoffs of the last few years were handled poorly little transparency, inconsistent communication, and decisions that felt made far above with little thought for the people affected. The "cost optimization" messaging rang hollow against continued executive spending. For a company that sells workflow and people process tools, the irony of a chaotic RIF wasn't lost on anyone in the field or on customers. Leadership political dynamics were real. The right team, the right manager you had cover. Performance alone didn't protect you.
