Cons

The culture at Ceridian has changed considerably in the last 2 years. Almost the entire leadership team that built the culture alongside David Ossip has been replaced. As we continue to grow globally and at scale, it is critical to have a cohesive engaged employee base. The team needs to be motivated and inspired. Many colleagues comment on how they miss David Ossip's passion for the business and hands-on approach to leading. The President has implemented an entirely new way of working, but it is perceived as a lift and shift of her SAP experience. Ceridian is not SAP. High potential talent is looking externally, because they didn't want to work for SAP when they came to Ceridian. They were looking for a high growth environment, a commitment to a product vision and the ability to be agile and move quickly. Unfortunately, now the tell tale signs of corporate politics and bureaucracy are slowing down the business and making people question the values.

Pros

I've seen the company go through a few periods of changes, and the one we are currently in is one of the most exciting ones. There are challenges for sure (check out the Cons section) but the Pros certainly outweigh them. First, the company has an ambitious growth trajectory. We're moving in to more markets, leaning in more into our product offerings (Dayforce Wallet...yay!), and we've recently acquired two companies in the APAC region. The pace is quick; there's a real sense of urgency. But you feel the collective excitement amongst your team and the company. Second, the caliber of new leaders is astounding. We already have highly respected leaders at the company. And to see the additions...I can only imagine how great the leadership is going to become as we look to get the cream of the crop in terms of leaders. Third, for as big as the company is there's still a spirit of innovation and agility. That's hard to come by at a company this size. I think the leaders like Leagh Turner are fine tuning the balance between structure and nimbleness. It's not perfect yet but we're almost there.

Cons

The pace. The pace is grueling and one that reminds me of my start-up days. You're also are working on high-level, strategic initiatives as well as some mundane, "drudge" work. It comes with high growth but it's something you do need to be comfortable. I think having the right number of people on teams will help. Some teams can definitely use extra bodies.

Pros

I really enjoy working at Ceridian. The company has been through considerable change almost constantly for the long-time I've been employed. This makes for a challenging work environment when employees are held accountable for their job responsibilities. You will never be bored at Ceridian. The growth prospects are huge. The strategy is clearly defined and communicated. The pay and benefits are excellent, and the opportunity for promotion is significant. The higher you move up in the organization, the more earnings potential in the form of RSU grants and bonus.

Cons

Going through some leadership changes across product and sales, but the new leaders are fantastic and bringing a different perspective. I believe this is short-term pain for long-term gain.

Pros

Outcome driven yet collaborative culture; open to new ideas & change; executive team is accessible and approachable

Cons

Investment in resources and operating expense lagging relative to pace of growth

Pros

- Culture - Learning opportunities - Hiring from within - Benefits

Cons

- Salary - Short staffed - Changes are rarely thoroughly vetted - Training

Pros

Great people,culture, diversity, market leading product with tremendous growth potential in a hot market

Cons

None that I can think of
