Pros

Kitchen, bagels, drinks, snacks, swags

Cons

It is a pseudo propriety software that is good at some HR areas, a lot of young kids are recruited to be exploited and brain washed in the name of culture. The power of one is a tag line but look any average implementation has over 15 integrations/interfaces to get simple tasks done and a crazy amount of manual work the customers take on, it is enough to put a dent on the power the software claim; built for the future is really true, because at some point in the future the customers might get a usable piece of software; the work environment is high on politics, if you on good terms with the management, there is no limits to mistakes or errors you can make;promotions are not on merits based, but who you are buddy with. This all sounds untrue if you are less than or a year into your career

Pros

Great culture at the peer to peer level. Excellent learning opportunities, good benefits and great name for resume.

Cons

Pretend to be transparent but a lot of smoke & mirrors. Significant cuts to comp plans & commissions that resulted in challenging pay cuts. While salaries were not reduced the OTE is no longer achievable and it’s a difference of thousands monthly, can’t even sell stock because it’s tanked. That being said, we’re disappointed in comp and stock but grateful to be employed because It’s no longer a matter of if you’ll be laid off but when.
