Definitely not "simply the best", but also not the worst
Pros
Good benefits (for now). Pay is decent, but not great. Good work life balance, though that's team dependent. Some truly great people working here at the IC and middle management levels.
Cons
I just wanted to respond to the recent review titled "Simply The Best", clearly written by an executive or HR. All you need to do is look at the recent wave of one and two star reviews to understand what's going on at UKG. Ultimate and Kronos merged in 2020 and it's been a complete disaster ever since. The current executive team is so inept and tone deaf, it actually blows my mind people get paid so much to be so incompetent. The recent RTO mandate is really just the icing on the cake. Almost every single decision these people have made in the last 2 years has had a negative impact on the employees and the company as a whole. Here's the cliff notes: We used to have great customer service, now it's awful and turnover is growing. We used to have some autonomy and were able to come up with product ideas for our teams, now everything comes from the top. We used to have budgets for team outings, and get togethers, and lunches, now there's crappy food once a week and there's never enough for everyone. We used to be able to solve problems quickly, now our builds are constantly broken and there's so much wasted dev time because we don't have the tools and resources we need. We used to have leaders that cared and listened and lead with empathy, now we have authoritarians that tell you "if you don't like it, you can leave". And guess what? A ton of talented people with years of product knowledge and experience did leave. And now this whole thing is coming apart at the seams. Morale is in the toilet and every change these people make just sinks us lower and lower.
