Pros

The job offers much variety, in terms of the client base and the type of work. I've never been bored. Able to work virtual. Great benefits. Team mates are smart and funny. The whole culture is very "team driven" and everyone focuses on partnering with both internal and external teams. This is a healthy environment to work in. Good place for someone who is self-motivated and doesn't need constant feedback. Employees are allowed to make mistakes and are expected to learn from them.

Cons

The work and clients can be intense. I needed to learn to set better boundaries. I also needed to learn to become more self-advocating.

Pros

There was once a great company named Ultimate Software, it was destroyed by a hostile takeover from H&F, a private equity firm, and a merger with Kronos to become UKG. There are very few Pros since that time.

Cons

When this company was Ultimate Software, prior to the takeover from H&F and the merger with Kronos, it was a world class company with top shelf people. The company Motto was "People First" and they truly lived by that motto, never a layoff, great working environment and stealer benefits. Since the takeover and subsequent merger with Kronos, to become UKG this company has taken a path of "Money First", which is understandable given the greedy nature of Private Equity Firms like H&F. They have systematically closed most of the offices across the US and have been expanding their footprint in Noida India, for obvious reasons. The leadership that has been put in place by H&F is clearly focused on IPO. And we all know what that means, clean up the books and make the company look as good on paper as possible. Can you say "Lipstick on a Pig". This was once a great company when it was run by Scott and Viv but now it has gone the way of the Private Equity management and is heading for a great fall.
