Pros

Kronos is very flexible and allows work from home and the ability to work a flexible schedule when needed to serve my customers. There is very little micromanagement and I am empowered to do what is needed to get the job done. Other departments are generally very cooperative and respond quickly and there are not a lot of territory issues. Going into the office is great and everyone is there because they want to be and it is full of creative, happy employees. I love going out and telling people I work for Kronos, most of our customers love us. (I am known as the Kronos guy at one coffee shop I frequent and given employee discounts. I did not ask for it and don't really need it. They do it because they love Kronos!)

Cons

The metrics used to measure us could be better. I had to point out how inaccurate and unfair one was and I think management agreed.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
