Vantaggi
Good benefits. That's it. Benefits.
Svantaggi
Thinking of working for UKG, or using their services? Please read this. First, as you scroll through, notice something about these UKG reviews… the (many) negative one-star reviews tend to be long and full of detail, whereas the five-star “Great company!” reviews tend to be one-liners and worded the same, e.g. “None at this time” for negatives. See the pattern? Don’t be fooled. Ignore the planted click-farm reviews and you’ll see UKG as the toxic company it has become. I worked for Ultimate for over a decade and it was, by far, the greatest company I’d ever worked for. After the merger it became unbelievably toxic. Every really talented and enthusiastic person in my department—every single one—had either quit in disgust or been driven out. Be aware that management is outsourcing your code to India as fast as they can. Now, what if you’re a potential customer and you like the idea of your payroll provider being “lean and mean”? Know this: UKG’s Salesforce system shows a satisfaction rating for every customer: green and everything is good; yellow means the customer is upset, red means the customer is *really* angry and is actively planning to jump. In the Ultimate days to see even a single red was a rarity. Shortly before I got the hell out of UKG, I was assigned twelve projects, and out of the twelve *eleven* of them were red. Think about *that* when you’re recommending UKG to your boss.
