Pros

The company I work for is small, and has a very relaxed environment. I work with others who are very knowledgeable about the field we are in. Greatk work-life balance

Cons

Not too many cons. The only con would be that there isn't much room for growth.And the managers aren't too involved with managing meaning someone may get bigger workloads while others slackoff

Hypocritical management and low morale

Pros

The education reimbursement benefit is quite generous.

Cons

You'll notice that all the glowing reviews come from people in sales positions. That's because any other role is considered second-class. When Trinet had their yearly 'all-hands' conference soon after acquiring another PEO, only the sales people were invited - while there, the attendees were encouraged to work together to create their new culture, but since only sales people were invited, only sales voices were valued enough to give input. How incredibly telling.

Thank you for providing feedback on your work experience at TriNet. We’ll make sure that your comments are shared with the appropriate departments. We know that all of our employees, from every organization, are critical to the success of TriNet. It is only through feedback like yours that we can identify issues and work to improve the experience for our staff. We do have to correct one point you made- every TriNet colleague is invited to every all hands meeting, period. And in fact they are expected to attend. If you are referring to our yearly sales kick off conference then yes, it focuses on sales. However, many non-sales personnel from TriNet attend to lend their subject matter expertise for sales training. Thanks again for taking the time to help us make TriNet a better company for everyone.
