Pros

The coworkers - because you’re all in the same sinking boat together trying to stay above water

Cons

-New Senior Leadership - ALL FROM ADP!!!!! - They claim they want to “help us be successful” but they don’t actually ask us what we need. -Leaders changed job requirements without notice providing unobtainable KPIs 3/4 of the way through the FY so that NO one can max bonus -Leaders are so panicked about losses that they are changing processes and requirements scrambling to appease stakeholders -Your feedback doesn’t matter so don’t bother giving it or you will be a target for retaliation -Changed travel requirements from 15% to 40-50% without any notice nor compensation of any kind -Immediate shut down of all internal culture-building activities with the new ADP leadership -Worst job I’ve ever had - please take my advice and DO NOT take a job offer from here!!

Work remote. Fantastic leaders, Definitely a place I have enjoyed working.

Cons

Pay is slightly less than competitors but work life balance and culture make up for it.

Pros

Great benefits; 90% of the ppl that worked there were the best and really did great work.

Cons

Made employees choose between having MLK Day off or Juneteenth- both which are federally recognized holidays. Excuse was that our customers are open on those days so we need to be open. So as a company, we had to pick which would be a paid holiday and everyone chose Juneteenth because it was in the summer. I think we got a floating holiday to use for any other holiday we wanted off that wasn’t recognized by the company. As you can imagine, this racism was prevalent in management/leadership. My team was the most diverse team and we all got restructured/laid off. There’s a lot of ego and control issues in this company, especially in Talent Acquisition.
