Pros

This should be a five star review. My experience was very good. The product is surprisingly complex with some good (altho slightly older) technology. The company was filled with truly intelligent people. Hours are good, 3 days a week in office. Random free food and schwag. DEI&B works for how UKG does it. while there are "big company" issues, ukg minimized them in my time.

Cons

One in Seven U-Krewers were just laid off in what can be generously called a disaster. Forget there are VPs trying to recreate a dev process circa 2007, forget some technology is hugely dated, forget the perpetual customer dissatisfaction, forget they are trending to moving jobs overseas. Forget a lot of flaws. Before taking a UKG job you have to ask yourself just how stable is the company? how well run is it?

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.
