Pros

Pretty good money, great benefits, some amazing people, managers included. Culture was awesome back in the JB era. With WMC, it deteriorated quickly. VERY QUICKLY.

Cons

Enjoy stress, pointless KPIs, redundant check in video calls (5+ daily), and a "leadership" team that has no trust in their employees? This is your place! Major management changes in Outside Sales, Inside Sales (ISO) and the C suite. People are jumping ship to work for competition in an office while Trinet is still remote. If someone is willing to make the move from a remote position to an in-office role (with the same pay) during a pandemic, they can't be doing too many things right.

Pros

Maybe good if you really want a smaller company and you get a good manager.

Cons

I never realized how important a "culture fit" was until I worked here. They don't appreciate a healthy work-life balance. All issues I brought to my manager were immediately turned back around onto me without any resolution.

Pros

Benefits and pay. I doubt I would make as much or have the benefits and perks that I have elsewhere. But there is a price to this. Middle managers are great. They care about their staff and the customers. If you can handle rapid change, long hours and want to pursue a career path in PEO, it may be for some people. But you really have to be into the culture.

Cons

Way too much chaos and change. Work/life balance suffers. Employees have workloads changed without any conversation with them. Upper middle and upper management act like they care but are so metrics driven that employees are no longer people, but rather a set of skills and abilities to be stuffed into positions. Stress levels are killer if you can't handle the changes and the metrics. People Matter is the company ad campaign...but I am still trying to find out who those people are...because they aren't my colleagues or me!
