Pros

No body else will hire you. Your love of timeclocks. Kronos is a steady employer. The problem is that they do not offer a pay for performance environment so the longer you stay the less you get paid in real dollars if you are an overachiever.

Cons

Poor pay. Cronyism. Execs out of touch with reality.Senior management has no formal business training and has botched one acquisition after the next. It is not the acquisition, but the follow through that leads to success. They are too tied to their past success in selling clocks to make any progress since they fear losing out to new ways of thinking.

Pros

In a down economy - any job that pays the bills is a good job.

Cons

After going from public to private - benefits were lost and not made up in other areas. No more stock plan. 401K is not 100% matching even if the company makes it's numbers. Uncertainty as to the future of Kronos given the H&F buy-out relationship.

Pros

Your work has a big impact across a lot of customers. I believe there is a lot of opporunties to impact your work area and other groups that you interact with. Project planning is interesting as Agile/Scrum is used to create short sprints of work and packaging of efforts into digestible deliverables. The people are great to work with and the environment is open and conducive to innovation. There is flexibility in work schedules and work life balance is important to both direct management and indirect (a couple of floors up). I believe this keeps up the morale around here. Senior management marches slowly forward in good strategic steps.

Cons

You are working for a large company with significant bureauracy. The bureauracracy tends to make change difficult to instill in a distributed workforce required to implement the Kronos products. The benefits, while not bad are at market but not above. Compensation is okay as the HR function keeps a tight handle on wages and Kronos does not pay above market at any time. As with a large bureauraacy communication stumbles daily. Each group seems to have another agenda and without strong communication we can and do step on each others toes from time to time. Because our division is on the opposite side of the country from HQ we are the wild children away from the nest.
