Pros

Great work/life balance. As a consultant I worked from home, traveled about 50-60% of the time. If I could not travel on a specific day for personal reasons, I was usually able to work it out with my project manager or director. The company is an industry leader in the Workforce Management software industry. The people I worked with were great, from my manager's manager all the way to the individuals I worked with on a daily basis.

Cons

Lack of a clearly defined career path. Compensation could be better (maybe it was because I had been there so long) but when I left Kronos I received a 25% salary increase for a similar position at another company.

Pros

Working from home and the benefits are okay, but not really any different from those in most other organizations.

Cons

Too many managers are ill-informed about how much work there is to complete. Too many meetings pull employees away from work, yet they are chastised for work-life balance. I do not want to miss a deadline, so I work extra hours but don't report them. Processes seem to change daily. People-first is all but forgotten. Customer service is the unsung hero, carrying the weight of the world but often overlooked. Unrealistic classroom times leave little to no time for Q&A. There are manager pets and clicks in the organization. "Ohana" (meaning Family) is a joke. Do not share innovations with others; they are often stolen by others who will take accolades and credit for themselves. There are egotistical managers who could use a lesson in humility. Growth is nearly impossible. Personal review is a waste of my time. The manager is going to override my ratings with their own. Just give me my review and let's get on with it. It's been all downhill since the merge. Layoffs are a constant worry.
