Vantaggi

benefits are fantastic (expecting changes at some point with the way things are going).

Svantaggi

I have worked at UKG for over 10 years and unfortunately, I can't recommend it as a great place to work anymore. One of the biggest issues is the new leadership within the company. Compared to Aaron and Scott, the new guard is an entirely less empathetic bunch. It feels like they are more interested in their own agendas than in the well-being of their employees. Additionally, there seemed to be a trend of great talent and tenure leaving the company. It has been disheartening to see so many talented people leave because they don't feel valued or heard. The mandatory 3 days in the office per week is a major drawback. In today's world, with so many options for remote work, it is frustrating to be forced to come into the office so frequently regardless of commute time. 90 minutes drive each way, doesn't matter...suck it up. This policy seemed to be a relic of an older time, and it made it difficult to balance work and personal responsibilities. This is no longer a great place to work. I hope someone with the power recognizes this and makes some corrections at the top, otherwise I don't see this playing out positively for UKG in the end.

Vantaggi

There was once a great company named Ultimate Software, it was destroyed by a hostile takeover from H&F, a private equity firm, and a merger with Kronos to become UKG. There are very few Pros since that time.

Svantaggi

When this company was Ultimate Software, prior to the takeover from H&F and the merger with Kronos, it was a world class company with top shelf people. The company Motto was "People First" and they truly lived by that motto, never a layoff, great working environment and stealer benefits. Since the takeover and subsequent merger with Kronos, to become UKG this company has taken a path of "Money First", which is understandable given the greedy nature of Private Equity Firms like H&F. They have systematically closed most of the offices across the US and have been expanding their footprint in Noida India, for obvious reasons. The leadership that has been put in place by H&F is clearly focused on IPO. And we all know what that means, clean up the books and make the company look as good on paper as possible. Can you say "Lipstick on a Pig". This was once a great company when it was run by Scott and Viv but now it has gone the way of the Private Equity management and is heading for a great fall.
