Pros

Work is remote, although they are starting talking about Return To the Office..

Cons

Layoff weren’t handled well, confirmed internally by CEO. They have plans to shrink even more the work force, but they don’t call it layoff.. Company is very dependent on EPAM contract.

Thank you for your feedback. The layoffs were an extremely difficult time for us all and it will take time for the effects to pass. We are committed to doing all we can to support people, take their feedback onboard and approach this phase with honest, transparent communications. Hopefully you have seen that already. Just to address your comment about the layoffs; our redundancy process has been completed and there is currently nothing else like this in place, formally or informally. Thanks again for your feedback and the HX and team and your leaders remain available to you if you need any support, just reach out.

Pros

Genuine human connection and collaboration. Great benefits. Autonomy and ability to share ideas that may create real change, at any level. Access to great AI tools and plenty of encouragement to experiment and learn.

Cons

At the end of the day, we are a business. We sell software. Sometimes in order to do that, we have to pivot direction fast or create deadlines that feel rushed. We aren't perfect - but you'd be hard pressed to find a company filled with better people who actually care about the work, the company mission, and about each other.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We appreciate experiences will differ but the experience you have shared here is very reflective of the experience for many people here, as evidenced by the comprehensive employee interviews we have conducted as part of our EVP redesign. We truly appreciate your contributions to the business and our culture.

Thank you for sharing your feedback and for recognizing the strong relationships, flexibility, and benefits that many employees value at Workhuman. We recognize that customer-facing roles can be fast-paced and that experiences can vary across teams. As our business continues to mature, we're investing in stronger planning, clearer prioritization, and more effective ways of working across the organization. We'd also note that while recognition awards are an important part of our Total Rewards philosophy and are reflected in employees' Total Rewards statements, they are separate from base salary and bonus compensation. Recognition is first and foremost about celebrating meaningful contributions and impact, while also providing employees with tangible rewards for the great work they do. We know there is always more to do, and we remain committed to listening, learning, and improving the employee experience as we continue to grow. Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective.
