Solid consistant place of employment, if you can learn not to look to deeply.

Pros

ADP is a pretty solid place to work long term. There is low risk of getting laid off, however an even lower risk of you being promoted to anything but what you were hired too do. IF you singled out for promotion, it seems like your constantly the target to get those, to fast track you into the managment "team", regardless if you do well.

Cons

There is no career path outside of managment. Sure there is always the Senior "whatever your title was when you where hired" but that doesn't change anything, and at most you might get a few dollars more on your pay check. Don't expect promotions of REAL merit, and don't expect annual wage increases that are anywhere near cost of living inflation. You WILL be making less in 2-3 years than when you started even tho you got (small) raises each year.

Safe, Fair Benefits, Probably not where you want to be if you want to be on the fast track.

Pros

Steady job, fair job security, and good learning opportunities. The company is fairly well insulated against huge downturns as recently experienced in US economy. Hard work and long hours are recognized and rewarded to the extent allowed by the company's stingy monetary policies.

Cons

Low comparative pay, must be a self-starter (don't expect much training). Characteristic of company's described by "best reasons", excitement in the workplace will be hard to find here. The regular grind: get more work done, make customers happy, repeat. Watch the years go by.

Pros

ADP is a stable company that if you work hard and get the job done, you never have to worry about having your job the next day, next month, or even next year. They take care of the people who take care of the company. The expectations that management have of you aren't unreasonable and are achievable IF you're willing to work. On-site, FREE medical benefits are an awesome addition to relatively competitive salaries, and employees are even still getting bonuses, even with the current state of the economy. Management styles within the company vary, but the management in my group is very good and interested in your personal development.

Cons

A downside of working in a large company such as ADP is that you have limited if not non-existent opportunities for advancement to senior management levels. The raises are small compared to smaller companies, but at least you have a job. And the buildings are over-crowded.
