      Pros

      Flexible work environment including unlimited time off and ability to work from home in many roles.
      Rapid growth means lots of challenges and opportunities to grow your career.
      The best mix of start-up culture with the resources of a larger firm.
      Very supportive of women in tech.
      Coworkers that are really passionate about making work life better for our customers and for their colleagues and make Ceridian feel like a family.

      Cons

      Fast growth comes with growing pains. You have to be willing to manage through the chaos at some points, but the upsides of being in an expansive organization with a market-leading product outweigh the tougher parts.

      I think leadership is doing the right things to set the organization up for the future as we continue to scale.

      I worked at Ceridian full-time (More than a year)

      Pros

      Work from home is an option
      Other ICs are talented and good people
      The product is interesting and intuitive
      High level management and CEO have an aggressive vision
      Snacks in the office
      Unlimited PTO

      Cons

      Worked in 1 segment which was a nightmare. Mid level managers dropped their work off on employees, rarely were accountable, suppressed those who were trying to improve, blatantly lied, were totally inept, had no leadership skills, were unprepared and this list can go and go. It made all of the pros irredeemable.

      How did these people become management?

      Demoralized due to the above.

      Advice to Management

      Please please please address this. You have to listen to employees to see that smoke means fire. Read your engagement surveys and take action! Why even send those surveys when you don't care?

      How did these people find their way into management? What did they prove to get to that position? I question everything about this company now after my experience...

      Cons

      Service dept needs a boost to match high level being offered through organization

      Advice to Management

      Focus on customer needs and encourage more communication between dept.

      Pros

      Great team culture with support. The compensation is better than the market but could still be better. Flexible hours, casual clothing, unlimited vacation, offices throughout the GTA and with the ability to work from home, one can't really complain! Opportunities to try a job rotation within the company is very beneficial!

      Cons

      Salary could be improved within support. The work can get repetitive and opportunity to try something new within the same role can be tough. Inconsistencies on how people get promoted that needs to be addressed across the different support teams

      Advice to Management

      There needs to be a standard set for promotions that is fair across all teams. Salaries in support could really benefit from an increase given the work is on par with the implementation team

      Pros

      Great ratings from those that don't know better.

      Cons

      Job applicants must take their talents to companies where leadership team is representative of the community and clients they server. Ceridian's all white team does not meet this standard. Top employer B.S. ratings.
