Pros

Company is still in growth mode and offers a lot of opportunity to help build it into something great. Colleagues are definitely collaborative and teamwork is there.

Cons

Senior leadership, especially finance, does not take enough time to understand the budget to ensure it is reasonable and achievable. Thus management is constantly having to reprove the need for even backfill headcount, requisitions are stalled and the front line is just expected to do two people's jobs. Environment has become extremely stressful with little true appreciation.

Pros

- Freedom to work independently - Decent amount of free lunches and swag - Good Health Benefits, 401k match

Cons

- Back office and operations are an absolute and complete mess, making it impossible for the client facing teams to succeed. Mistakes are made on almost everything and it is a fight at every turn to get them to resolve the issue. They are unreachable. This is TriNet’s biggest issue. - Zero sense of unity or teamwork. - Management is lacking and has little accountability.

A Sales LAST company

Pros

Nobody cared about performance of sales reps and we just kept hiring C players and let them play office all day The 5+ sales incentives trips I attended were top notch They used to have great sales leadership TriNet pretends to be a grown up real company, and the stock market believes them TriNet fires all their largest clients, so being small is great

Cons

Client's interest were last in line Sales didn't matter to the company, a clear indication as to why they can't grow the client base past 300k clients in 5 years. SOX compliance thrown around at everyone to make them stop serving the clients best behavior I would never recommend anyone to work for this company, it's a disaster all the way around If you are a client in a bad neighborhood risk won't want to bring you on
