So so environment, long hours, constant change.

Pros

Potential for work from home days, but it depends on who you report to and there's been a lot of change in the department.

Cons

There is very poor employee morale, too many layoffs as they acquire companies has lead to a lot of grumbling. There is little to no individual recognition for performance and little to no room for advancement. When I was there management looked down upon ambitious individuals, and even made sexist and age biased remarks.

If you are a current employee, please give us an opportunity to address and hopefully resolve the frustrations you’re experiencing. TriNet takes allegations of sexist and age biased remarks very seriously and encourage you to contact your office’s HR business partner so that an investigation and the appropriate disciplinary action can be taken. We are in an exciting period of rapid growth as a company, but we understand frequent changes can be difficult to experience. Turnover is a natural part of any progression, but we are glad to report our acquisitions have resulted in more new positions within the company rather than layoffs. Through this growth, we hope to offer more small businesses HR management services and help them navigate an increasingly complex environment.

If you are a current employee, we would encourage you to reach out to our VP of Sales or our HR department. That way, we can work to resolve the frustrations you're experiencing. In particular, we are happy to explain any perceived pay inequities and would appreciate an opportunity to clarify the quotas and the system behind them.

Pros

Consistent feedback and review with supervisors, comfortable working environment, excellent pay for a temporary position. Great training process that could be applied to multiple jobs at other employers. Room for advancement is there for motivated employees who are willing to go out and get the education to reach their goals. Lots of employees incentives, positive employee culture.

Cons

Many employees will find better, permanent employment elsewhere with benefits to boot.....TriNet is losing lots of excellent potential permanent talent that way.
