Pros

The only reason why one has to work over there is Salary which a way beyond market average and Stocks (remember that you have to be like a slave for 4 years) that comes with a 4 year lock-in. And, it is very obvious that they pay such a high salaries as their work environment is totally polluted and somehow they need to hold employees.

Cons

Not a good place at all until and unless you work as a slave for the teams in US. Leaders have no clue on how to drive an engaging culture and dynamic work environment. Teams in US leverage that to their advantage.

Pros

ServiceNow had a differentiated platform and products. Early on the culture had a startup energy that was rare for a company this size collaborative teams, ownership, and a sense that people actually cared about outcomes. Working with large enterprise customers on complex workflows was interesting work.

Cons

The ServiceNow I joined was a different company. As headcount increased, so did the bureaucracy, layers, and friction that rewarded politics over execution. The layoffs of the last few years were handled poorly little transparency, inconsistent communication, and decisions that felt made far above with little thought for the people affected. The "cost optimization" messaging rang hollow against continued executive spending. For a company that sells workflow and people process tools, the irony of a chaotic RIF wasn't lost on anyone in the field or on customers. Leadership political dynamics were real. The right team, the right manager you had cover. Performance alone didn't protect you.
