- 1.0Aug 24, 2023Senior ManagerCurrent Employee, less than 1 year
Pros
- Depending on role, pay is competitive - Genuinely caring and competent individuals scattered throughout the organization - Stated Mission is one that resonates with me personally - Does allow internal mobility (but contributes to a con listed below)
Cons
- One of the most toxic cultures I've experienced in my career of ~10 companies - Preaches itself as a People company; doesn't live up to that in practice - Most leaders aren't interested in solving problems - just playing politics - Top-down management culture (no ownership in your role unless your ED / DVP+) - Firedrill culture (no accountability to planning, strategy, prioritization) - Lack of accountability towards outcomes: those who care and/or are competent to have to pick up the slack and fix the problems caused by those not held accountable for their persistent lack of performance - Significant portion of the workforce are okay with the above; leaching the SMB's they serve money and time

- 3.0Nov 10, 2023One of ManyCurrent Employee, more than 3 yearsFlorida City, FL
Pros
Great Bemefits, work/life balance, pay is kinda fair. They fire lazy and incompetent people. Great for minorities and women.
Cons
Outsourcing to BRIC countries, which seems like a conflict with personal information. Having Indian workers having access to American personal information. India works with Russia, the country that commits identity fraud. Creates a risk of longevity in the company’s future.

Cons
They simultaneously promote work life balance while creating a culture that does not allow for it.
1 - 1.0Oct 19, 2023Sales Development Representative (SDR)Current Employee, more than 1 year
Pros
- The culture is great, everyone is commutative and encouraging to one another. - Option to be creative with your pitches and choose what to say. - Promotes within.
Cons
- One of my biggest cons is the pay, you’ll mainly make the base minimum pay to start which is not ideal with bills. In the event you do get a deal, it’s rare so I wouldn’t expect commission right away. - Territories go to people with seniority which doesn’t offer a great opportunity for newcomers with experience in the industry.
2 - 1.0Nov 2, 2023Anonymous EmployeeCurrent Employee
Pros
Work from home Good benefits
Cons
TriNet is a third party outsourcing to another third party. They are moving so many jobs to lower paying countries and letting go of the hardworking, loyal employees in the US. The leaders say it's to "optimize the business", but I think we all know that is a lie. It is to add to their pockets. The customer service is just getting worse and they don't seem to care. The expertise just isn't there anymore.
