Pros
Great benefits that came from Ultimate Software.
Cons
Take two organizations with complimentary products (Ultimate Software and Kronos), squash them together without regard for either company culture, and you have UKG. The company is still struggling to come together as one cohesive org two plus years after its merger. Teams can't agree on which processes to use, technologies to leverage or systems to invest in. On top of that, they have a serious identity crisis and inability to adapt quickly to the changing workforce. Want to work remote? Too bad, we're in the throes of what leadership is calling "return to each other" (seriously, RTEO). Why? Because we...umm.."we just work better when we're together." Huh? We all worked remotely for two years and the company hit its numbers. Baby boomer leadership is desperately trying to get workers to be in person so that we can drive to the office, sit in a cube, and join Zoom/Teams calls all day. UKG's tagline is "Our Purpose is People." The irony is that UKG does not listen to what it's own people want: innovation, flexibility, and autonomy. Not an early 2000's grayscape office with pool tables and pizza partys. That's not culture. That's a prison.
