Pros
The benefits are great (for now).
Cons
What started as a “merger” 3 years ago with two companies that cared deeply about their employees has turned into a corporation (owned by a PE firm) looking to go public at all costs regardless of employee/culture impact. We’re no longer seen as individuals with families, kids, hobbies, etc.; we’re numbers on a spreadsheet which can, and will be, pulled when needed to reduce costs. We’ve become what we despised, just another company solely focused on the bottom-line and enough is never enough. It has been difficult and eye opening, especially these last few months, to watch this transition and leadership doesn’t get it. Catch phrases like ‘our purpose is people’, ‘one UKG’, etc. are disingenuous at best. After the return to office mandate and layoffs in March, company morale is at an all-time low. There was zero effort in keeping or repatriating some of our high performing individuals with years of experience/product knowledge. Again, we’re just numbers and expendable.
