Pros

* The pace is always fast and there is never a dull moment. * Everyone is on the same team in the same culture and are willing to work together. * Most groups have an on-call rota via global follow the sun. Someone is always available to resolve an issue. * Competitive salaries * Hard work is recognized and well rewarded. * No nonsense and issues can be approached directly. * Great company outlook!

Cons

* The pace is fast and this is not for everyone. * Not the perkiest place in the Silicon Valley. There are plenty of snack, coffee machines, and various other drinks to choose from but there isn’t anything outlandish like sleep pods or restaurants catered by famous chefs to brag about. Although, I personally appreciate the company’s responsible attitude toward budgeting that money elsewhere.

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.
