I went between putting one start or two, landed on two because of the Benefits and the work/life balance. I proactively sought out to work for Ultimate as I had heard great things and when asking everybody during the interview process if what was published was true, they all confirmed it. That has not been my experience.
- If you haven't worked for US for a long time, you don't fit in and the "old timers" don't want you to fit in. The company is attempting to do a reorganization right now and it is the most unorganized process. If you are on the "outside/not been with the company for a while" you don't know if you will have a job, where that job is, and have absolutely no input what you want to do. With the merger with Kronos in process, it is very clear there is no involvement from org specialists to assist (the HR organization has been ripped apart) with the org changes and to ensure communications are crisp and clear. There are no communications, you are finding out the org changes by updates made to the organizational tool in US. For a people first company, this experience has been the furthest from people first and has been awful to experience.
- The technology is old, not connected, and not global. When trying raise, you get a lot of push back.
- Collaboration is very hard as people that have been around for a while are very defensive and don't want to change (not open to hearing any suggestions)
- The way of working is antiquated
