Pros

A lot of freedom and a high base salary, if you go to training you make good friends there

Cons

There is no clear cut path to winning or attaining your quota. A lot of people fail there because we are expected to generate customers out of thin air

Pros

-Flexible work hours -Fortune 500 Benefits TriNet pays 90% of Employee Only -Stock purchase plan

Cons

-Turn over is higher than any company I have ever been with. I've seen 3 people quit and 2 people fired at one office since the beginning of the year. Over a dozen more people company wide. That does not include the offices TriNet shut down and did not say one peep about to the remaining employees. People are leaving in droves, for good reason. -Management are worst micro-managers, even if you are above quota for the year. You will be checked in on every single day. Managers don't look at your calendar and they send countless emails for follow up and to request that you fill out multiple spreadsheets daily to track your activity. -The operations teams that work along side sales puts everything back on sales. Sales has to do everything (and figure it out themselves) although they are not trained on how to run payroll, taxes, implementation, ACA, the list goes on and on. -Implementing a client is a NIGHTMARE. Everything is done down to the last minute, and the Implementation Consultants and Managers are not held to any standard when they deliver poorly (at best). Multiple clients leave after less than 6 months at TriNet. This speaks volumes about how TriNet does not care about retaining their clients, only hitting their monthly, quarterly, and yearly numbers. -This is a company of smoke; change and improvement are promised and yet the only thing that changes is more pressure put on management and the sales consultants to hit their numbers. SOI is being run into the ground and no one seems to care. -DO NOT waste your time at this company. There is no work life balance, you will be micromanaged, and at the end of the day you won't be able to calculate your commission. TriNet does not care about paying it's employees for the work they do.

Pros

Good Benefits, competitive pay, talented employees. There is a lot of work happening at the executive level trying to figure out how to merge TriNet proper and the companies it acquires.

Cons

lots of growing pains with in the company. Specifically SOI feels like it is not part of TriNet proper. It operates as a separate company under the TriNet umbrella. This causes many issues for the sales team to sell the TriNet value without the TriNet platform.

Thank you for your input. As you should be aware by now, having one common tech platform is a big goal and we have talented teams working diligently on it. We wish you great success and hope you see the results as they unfold with every successful release.
