Run away if you're in IT

Pros

The team members I've worked with are all top notch. In certain roles, one may have the ability to work from home. Average pay. Average number of vacation days. Decent 401(k). Full complement of benefits.

Cons

Technologically, things are old. Tools used for development are usually unsupported freeware or built in-house to save money. No training for IT people. Benefits are very expensive. They blame the high cost on the employees utilizing the services too much. Average number of vacations days. Only 6 holidays per year. No personal days. Normally about 1 or 2 pct raises, if lucky, Sadly, all IT operations are being sold to WiPro in India. All U.S. IT jobs are in jeopardy. Several rounds of layoffs have occurred in the past few months as a result. Unless you're in a client-facing role or an executive, there are no perks and no recognition. Company's focus used to be on the employee, then the client. Now it's reversed and morale is suffering. No dedicated people managers; just project managers who have to give reviews.

This "new" company needs a new direction

Pros

Has a lot of virtual positions. Bonus and 401k matching are very nice.

Cons

Office environment is not fun. A lot of competitors tend to treat employees better in the office with things like snacks/drinks and games. At Alight it is all work and bad coffee. Competitors send all Workday Consultants to Workday Rising, Alight only sends you if you are presenting; so again, it is all work and no play. Alight wants to be a best employer, however, they fail to establish trust with their employees. People are leaving the company like crazy right now and there has been no word from leadership to help stop the bleeding, so this makes the rest of the employees worry that things are not going so well from a financials perspective.

Don’t Stay too Long

Pros

Virtual employee, only pro. Benefits cost way too much.

Cons

Managers back other managers, not interested in developing colleagues. My group has mid-year reviews now. What’s the point? Reviews are based on team politics. Managers refuse to consider process improvements. They think because something’s been done the same way for 10 years, there’s nothing to improve. If that were the case, the process wouldn’t have numerous defects after 10 years. Currently offering big bonuses if someone you recommend gets hired for the Workday group. Why not train from within? There’s no way it would cost the company $6,000 to train me on Workday.
