Pros

TriNet really cares not only about the growth and development of it's employees professionally but personally as well. It has been eye opening to learn more about the PEO world and about myself in a professional atmosphere. My management team has worked diligently to ensure I meet the requirements needed to obtain my career path and are continually making sure I have the tools necessary to succeed.

Cons

If you have a lack of work ethic this is not the company for you. It has incredible benefits and rewards for your hard work but it does require a drive to succeed like none other.

Pros

Employee medical benefits Bit of flexible working hours

Cons

TriNet doesn't follow proper Kanban methodologies even though it is supposed to. If employee talks and questions more then they will be laid off with proper 2month plan. They keep employees who doesn't work properly even at senior positions like director or product management etc So at the end , NO job security . No career path defined even after GCC is opened since 2yrs . No proper feedback channel during appraisals. Manager can quietly trouble employees during midyear or year end appraisals
