Pros

So I have been here for more than 3 months and can say with confidence, Ultimate is the Google of the HR/Payroll industry! Going in, I knew this was a great place to work, but seeing is believing. Everyone cares about what they do and how much of an impact each person makes. The motto is People First! This means, the company takes care of the Employees, Employees take care of their customer and this has proven to be very successful. They encourage personal growth within and everyone is here to help with the plan and not hold you back. This company recognizes the value of their employees and that's the main reason I joined. Also, the benefits are ridiculously amazing!

Cons

I wish I had one... but so far so good!

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.
