Pros

Kronos has a great work / life balance. This isn't to say that you don't work hard. There have been many times where I have put in 16 hour days. If you thrive on challenges and enjoy a collaborative work environment where everyone constantly looks for ways to exceed customer expectations, then Kronos is the place for you.

Cons

Kronos has trended over the past few years toward hiring people from outside the company for their management positions. In the current environment, it is difficult for employees to grow into management positions even if they have a significant amount of management experience in their past. If your focus is on being a contributor to the team rather than holding the reigns and driving the wagon train to the promised land, then you can do no better than Kronos.

Pros

Working from home and the benefits are okay, but not really any different from those in most other organizations.

Cons

Too many managers are ill-informed about how much work there is to complete. Too many meetings pull employees away from work, yet they are chastised for work-life balance. I do not want to miss a deadline, so I work extra hours but don't report them. Processes seem to change daily. People-first is all but forgotten. Customer service is the unsung hero, carrying the weight of the world but often overlooked. Unrealistic classroom times leave little to no time for Q&A. There are manager pets and clicks in the organization. "Ohana" (meaning Family) is a joke. Do not share innovations with others; they are often stolen by others who will take accolades and credit for themselves. There are egotistical managers who could use a lesson in humility. Growth is nearly impossible. Personal review is a waste of my time. The manager is going to override my ratings with their own. Just give me my review and let's get on with it. It's been all downhill since the merge. Layoffs are a constant worry.
