Exciting times - Anonymous employee Criterion HCM Employee Review

Collaborative team environment and great coworkers.

No cons. Great place to work.

Hard to find any pros.

* russian-speaking environment and actuallu russians working in the company. * No onboarding process – zero time is allocated for learning; employees are expected to deliver output almost immediately. * Micromanagement culture – if you miss KPIs, you are closely monitored. * Employee activity is tracked using an app that monitors mouse and keyboard usage, adding an extra layer of surveillance. * KPI obsession – quantity is prioritized over quality, process, or innovation. * Psychological pressure – public KPI dashboards create competition and stress. * No focus on quality or sustainability. No internal improvements allowed – only customer-requested changes are implemented, stifling innovation. * Minimal benefits – no laptop or tech licenses provided, no health insurance, no paid sick leave. * Small monetary bonus – $250 per quarter, which may not offset lack of other benefits. * Short-termism – long-term productivity, maintainability, and employee well-being are sacrificed for monthly numbers. * Risk of burnout and turnover – high-pressure environment with little support.
