Pros

Vacation benefits were good and the employees made it enjoyable to go to work.

Cons

This is an absolute trash terrible company with no vision for its future. The payroll product was so sub par that it was an embarrassment to actually have to go on site and try to show the customer we were delivering any value at all. There was no structure or business processes in place to allow anyone in the implementation department to succeed. Just a series of half baked solutions to slow the gushing wound that was Ceridian. The sales group over-promised and the rest under-delivered. The management structure in place was like a high school clique, if you weren't one of the "group" you were nothing. No growth, training, or mentoring opportunities. HR was a joke, allowed people to abuse and accuse others of crimes with no due process. Ethics hotline was used like a gossip hotline to get others in trouble.

Pros

Dayforce has a lot of great perks. They are a cutting-edge HCM company and are always innovating. They are 100% remote and are great with work-life balance. Pay and benefits are good, and I would put them slightly above average in both.

Cons

Work can be too siloed at times, and top-down plans are not always communicated as efficiently as they could be.

Pros

I was able to retire. After Dayforce, I was DONE.

Cons

I wouldn't be so quick to leave Paylocity, one disaster, for Dayforce. IF you have been there for 5+ years, you have a good territory. If you're new to the organization, expect uneven playing field and a "junior" quota. I was in HR sales for 30+ years, most of them in true Enterprise when I was hired as a mid-market rep with an unreasonably small patch. They won't tell you this in an interview so ask and then make the hiring manager provide documentation in the form of a territory listing as sadly, they're not honest and you're going to have to verify EVERYTHING you are told. Oh, and the new VP of sales is liked about as much as the last one, which is to say, not loved at all. B
