Pros

Yearly Employee events and Immigration process Engineering department seems to be good Good for beginners and freshers

Cons

Dont get deceived with overall ratings and top ratings unless you personally check with previous/current employees. Kronos IT is driven by few persons ,not as organization ,dont recognize efforts and no respect for experienced skilled workers. There so many to quote: 1. Long working hours 2. No Trainings 3. No career development 4. Legacy or outdated software 5. Small environment with lots of inhouse customization which doesnt useful for outside world. 6. Not good for skilled/experienced. 7. Lots of politics and partiality

Pros

There was once a great company named Ultimate Software, it was destroyed by a hostile takeover from H&F, a private equity firm, and a merger with Kronos to become UKG. There are very few Pros since that time.

Cons

When this company was Ultimate Software, prior to the takeover from H&F and the merger with Kronos, it was a world class company with top shelf people. The company Motto was "People First" and they truly lived by that motto, never a layoff, great working environment and stealer benefits. Since the takeover and subsequent merger with Kronos, to become UKG this company has taken a path of "Money First", which is understandable given the greedy nature of Private Equity Firms like H&F. They have systematically closed most of the offices across the US and have been expanding their footprint in Noida India, for obvious reasons. The leadership that has been put in place by H&F is clearly focused on IPO. And we all know what that means, clean up the books and make the company look as good on paper as possible. Can you say "Lipstick on a Pig". This was once a great company when it was run by Scott and Viv but now it has gone the way of the Private Equity management and is heading for a great fall.
