It has never been a better time to be a customer of Ceridian!

Business Outlook

Pros

A place that when you do well with the responsibilty you have been given, you are given greater opportunity and growth. Career growth is possible. Moving to a global delivery model over the past several years has positioned us well. This is a customer led company ... things like NPS Scores, increased focus on grea implementations and integrating our solutions will make a huge impact.

Cons

We are fiscally conservative in our approach when compared to our competitors. Over the past 10 years, this has been challenging as some have seemed to 'get to the goal quicker', yet in the global circumstances we are in today, we are well positioned financially.

Great place to start your sales career, but the compensation is not up to par

Commercial sales - inside

Business Outlook

Pros

Simple product to sell, staff is very friendly. Management is fair, and honest with their feedback

Cons

Compensation is weak. Although the people are great, it is not always the most talented sales staff. Motivation can be lacking at times. To much micro managing on call stats and not enough emphasis on pipline generating activities.

Business Outlook

Pros

The Benefits are excellent, time off is excellent, 9/80 work schedule. Management tends to be very understanding when you are trying to balance work & life. Co-workers are great, most have been there for years (simply because they haven't done any new hiring in years).

Cons

Overseas outsourcing, senior management is awful, too many products. The re-organizing managment happens on a yearly basis. New executive managements comes in a promises the same thing old management, but nothing ever happens. Constantly cutting costs by cutting the staff - it's never management.
