Pros

Work from home capability Amazing colleagues in the services teams

Cons

Leadership has pushed new implementation changes that do not work from a fundamental consulting and implementation standpoint. Implementation delivery sponsorship team that pushes these changes, do not adher to the changes. This services leadership team will not have the necessary conversations with the clients, setting up the services consulting team up for trouble down the road. This has been a repeating pattern for the last 2 years since the company has gone public. In addition to a very unreasonable workload that leads to extreme stress, consultants are forced to be the face of the inevitable confusion, frustration, ire, and anger from the customers. Leadership members make poorly thought decisions and leave it to their consultants to own up to them. Most implementation teams cannot rely on their leaders to step in and have difficult conversations with customers and also upper Ceridian leadership. What is upsetting is that as a well-wisher for this company, as I still believe Dayforce has great potential, these same supposed people of "leadership", have forced great hardworking talented people to pursue other alternatives outside of Ceridian, switch departments and in some extreme cases, go on medical and stress leave for extended periods of time.

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
