Pros

The culture is real - the intensions, the care from leadership and the drive are all 100% ingrained in the ServiceNow DNA.

Cons

Drinking from the fire hose is no joke - I was told this over four years ago when I interviewed and the same applies today. Leadership pivots constantly - there seems to be no ability to put a PIN in it so you can get the job done and it affects your ability to be successful in your role. We are told 'this is what innovation looks like' as if that makes our stress level acceptable. It's not innovation, it's lack of leadership and the result of constant pivoting affects working relationships with partners and the customer experience. DE&I remains a challenge, we talk the talk, but I am hearing we don't always walk the talk... equity matters.

Pros

pay was solid. i guess you can get in at a good strike price if you receive a new grant now...

Cons

- Bill and p5 are busy living the high life at F1 races and concerts, while the operators get cut - Leaders have been told not to promote internally. Only external candidates, ideally from salesforce - we just cut 2500 people and leadership refuses to even acknowledge it - Refresh #s are low and we have been told additional stock grants for lower than VP will be <1/2 or 0 - we continue to move away from what our product can actually do now we are just building screens and selling an unrealistic dream
