Pros

Work life balance. That's all anyone ever talks about and why Kronos is consistently rated so high in terms of places to work.

Cons

Technology, Innovation, Future. Kronos is stuck with a 1990's style code base they're trying to pass off as a 2017 SaaS solution. They're rushing the product and not taking the time to do it correctly. No one wants to re-write the core code therefore everything is held together with duct tape and bailing wire. It's incredibly fragile and bug ridden and it's only a matter of time before customers get sick of the headaches of upgrading and go to a real SaaS solution. The worst part is that most of the senior management and engineers have been at Kronos for so long that they don't see the problem. "This is the way we'v always done it" Is not a phrase one wants to hear at a technology company.

Pros

Great benefits package, and PTO days CEO cares about the company and its employees and their actions speak louder than words. We have a CEO who will hold a conversation with you with a smile.

Cons

I wouldn't recommend working in support department, work is very overwhelming and lots of stress especially around Nov, Dec, Jan. The culture in support doesn't align with the rest of the company, employees in support are not first, you are accountable for 800-1000 clients and the volume of work is emotionally damaging. Pto blackout are almost for 2 months during the holidays where you are working 10-12 hours per day in a very fast paced environment. They provide lunch 2 days a week and snacks every other days, but that doesn't account for the emotional stress you are going through with the work volume.

Pros

Working from option home is nice

Cons

Stay under the radar and don’t speak unless spoken to. Don't reach out to your manager for help. Don’t offer improvement suggestions; you will be considered difficult no matter how good you think you present it. If things go wrong, blame others. Management wants names when things go wrong. Management is not complimentary of work. They use negative reinforcement. Company is resistant to change and process improvement. The only way changes are brought about is after evidence of dozens of failures and even after that it’s unlikely. Departments do not talk with each other; rather they throw work over the fence without explaining how processes should work. Employees are not encouraged to educate other departments in their processes. Many departments handle work through mass email boxes or online forms so you can never figure out who is doing the work or where your request is in that process. Don’t ever do any work that lies outside of your core job. You will get in trouble and not be thanked, no matter how harmless you think it is. Little to no advancement for remote employees. Personnel don’t like to talk on the phone. Everything is handled via email.
