Dayforce reviews

The communication of top level management is terrible. Their use of corporate lingo is excessive and patronizing. The wages are low for the amount of work you have to do. There is excessive pressure for you to maintain "productivity" numbers, using a very strict formula with very little room for lee way. When revenue is down, you can be sure that the regular employees will be the first to go, before any other cost-saving avenues are explored. Kathy Marinello brings in a tremendously large salary - she's on the Forbes top 25 richest women list - yet a pay cut for her or other executives wasn't considered before a large amount of workers were laid off. Senior management has no idea what we actually do. Middle management has an idea, but they could not DO what we do, yet the have plenty of advice on HOW we should do what we do. It's like a dog telling a cat how to meow. Ceridian spent millions of dollars on a new content management platform that is riddled with errors and inferior to the previous platform in every conceivable way. The money would have been better spent keeping valued employees. But then, Ceridian does not value its employees. Policy is more important than the nuances of individual situations. Communication is top to bottom only. There is no sense that management or senior management listens to or implements any suggestions made by those on the bottom. It's soul draining work with no professional or emotional rewards. A mental sweatshop.

They tell you that you're downsized and then make you work for an undetermined amount of time. If you choose to terminate your employment before they let you go, you loose your severance and health benefits. Additionally, they make you train the people who are going to take over your job and do it with a fake smile plastered to your face. Management also clings to the idea that their employees "make great happen." Ceridian held a huge conference in January describing their "optimistic" position in the economy and less than a month later, they downsized many consultants and researchers. It really felt like a slap in the face.
