Pros

Good pay Great Coworkers Great resume booster for Kronos Implementation contracts in other companies.

Cons

I worked alone on my shift for the better part of a whole year and I enjoyed the peace. My manager was sometimes a good guy but, a push over. I happened to catch the ire of his boss by not brown nosing and playing politics when he came around. When he says jump I always ask why instead of how high. This company is so full of politics that it is suffocating, The unlimited time off is a carrot for the starving horse. They try to dissuade you from taking time off by treating you like the office leper.

Pros

Currently great benefits and work environment. Huge on DE&I with a great community of support and groups.

Cons

Salaries are below average. Benefits expected to change from fully paid premiums. RTO is kicking in. C-Team says one thing then does another. Just had another round of layoffs after Great Place to Work survey. Moral is low after this last round.

Pros

Unlimited PTO, free healthcare, and good 401K match (these benefits might change)

Cons

I have been in this company for about 10 years, and I know how the culture was before to what it is today. New hires don’t have a clue how this company was 4 years ago, and for many of them this is just “amazing.” Just to provide some background, when Aron Ain was the CEO (Kronos), the approval rating in Glassdoor was at ~95%. It is funny to see these good reviews screaming all is good when the current CEO, Chris Todd, rating is just plumbing. The overall rating of UKG was above 4.0 (I would say 4.5 average), but now it is at 3.8 and decreasing. These two factors alone should raise a red flag. Those reviews saying “simply the best” are far from being true. UKG RTO mandate, which they call RTEO (return to each other), is affecting people that have been hired as remote employees from day one. UKG solution is to tell employees if you don’t come back to the office, you are fired. Employees were there for the company through the pandemic, and while many were hired as office employees before, UKG seems to deny the pandemic happened and changed many people’s way of life. Instated of providing support what we get is “if you don’t like it, you can leave.” Lastly, it is a joke to say, “Our Purpose is People.” Aron always promoted the idea that when you have a happy employee base, the company results would come alone. Aron used to do a video every other Friday for employees, and during the pandemic, every Friday. How many times Chris Todd has done this? About the CPO? Saying salaries are competitive with the market, using a chart from 2019 to prove her point (very funny). It is very sad to see what it was a great company going down the pipe, just for the greedy of the C-level.
