Pros

The people outside of senior leadership are fantastic. It can be a very collaborative environment which was the best part about working here. The office itself in Framingham is nice but probably too big for the size of the company. Lot of empty desks. They do have good food and some decent snacks. The fact that you can recognize and reward the goodness you see is awesome and was probably my favorite part about working there. Knowing that I could recognize all the good work I was seeing was awesome! I will also add that at its core, the product is a good one--and I would argue that it's better than the other reward and recognition platforms out there.

Cons

Leadership. Something needs to change. The sales team is an absolute nightmare, run by the smallest man who ever lived. In all honesty with his approach, they might as well get rid of everybody else in sales and just let him do it since he believes he can do everybody's job better than they can anyway. Complete fraud who claims he wants feedback and input but absolutely does not. His way or the highway. Something needs to change as the company has not performed well on the sales side for years. Folks get laid off year after year with numbers slipping but it's baffling that this person is still in charge. The lack of humanity displayed by senior leadership at a company with the word 'human' in its title is sickening. What this person says about others who work for him behind closed doors is appalling. You ultimately mean nothing to him but he'll keep you close when it's beneficial to him. This is not inclusive of front line managers who do their best to help their AE's. This is for the people above them who don't allow them to shine or thrive. This is for those people who push the good folks down and make the place a complete nightmare to work at. Time to look in the mirror.

Thank you for sharing your feedback and for recognizing the strong relationships, flexibility, and benefits that many employees value at Workhuman. We recognize that customer-facing roles can be fast-paced and that experiences can vary across teams. As our business continues to mature, we're investing in stronger planning, clearer prioritization, and more effective ways of working across the organization. We'd also note that while recognition awards are an important part of our Total Rewards philosophy and are reflected in employees' Total Rewards statements, they are separate from base salary and bonus compensation. Recognition is first and foremost about celebrating meaningful contributions and impact, while also providing employees with tangible rewards for the great work they do. We know there is always more to do, and we remain committed to listening, learning, and improving the employee experience as we continue to grow. Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective.
