Pros

Front and middle-line employees and managers, particularly those from legacy Saba, Cornerstone, EdCast, and SumTotal

Cons

Soooo many cons but ultimately it's about how "new" senior leaders (in place for 10+ months) are accelerating the evolution of the company to try and compete with legacy HCM/ERP companies. These folks don't have a vested interest or innate connection to the core of what Cornerstone "was" (prior to and in the early days of "the acquisitions" over the past few years). You're pushing a platform that customers and prospects didn't ask for and don't see the value in - they want modules, not "holistic platforms" yet you push "Galaxy" as the panacea that will solve their problems. Customers are NOT happy/satisfied, employees are looking for the exits, and the new leaders are buying time to move on to the next opportunity.

Cornerstone OnDemand Response

You're right, things have changed significantly since we became a PE backed company in October 2021. We've done several acquisitions, most recently Talespin and SkyHive, created a new category of Workforce Agility, created a new Employee Value Proposition (EVP) of Tomorrow. Together., and established a new AI Powered platform with Galaxy. We are bringing all of these assets together to help organizations close the Workforce Readiness Gap. This insists we think differently, thing big, be ambitious, and be bold! Our internal mobility and promotions are almost exactly on par with our external hiring. We need to do a better job of highlighting this data and statistics as these are great moments that matter in the employee experience. I wish you well on your future career endeavors. All the best. --Carina Cortez
