Pros

I love my coworkers. They're all so warm, kind, and passionate, and it didn't take long for me to instantly feel a sense of community here. In terms of the company, the leadership is the best I've seen. All aligned, each having strong virtues and very approachable. Because of them, the company's been growing like crazy and the culture has been incredible. I thought I wanted to join a 500-1000 company where I could have an impact. ServiceNow is huge, but because it's in the next phase of growth, there's a lot of newness and uncertainties where it feels very startup and nimble. So my work is impactful, and I get the budget and resources of a large company. Best of both worlds.

Cons

Lack of process. People are used to executing without strategy and process which leads to pointless meetings and wasted work time. It's a changing factor but there's currently a lot of process that needs to be defined. Minor, but clunky internal software. Some of the technologies we use have pretty bad user experiences, like OneDrive, Solstice.

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.
