Pros

Unlimited annual leave Unlimited remote work Some really smart colleagues Good pay

Cons

This place is going only one direction - downhill. The only focus is on sales at any cost. There is no budget for any other team which supports the sales team be it marketing, solutions, business development etc. 20 sales reps for ANZ when 3-4 are usually successful every year. Large scale decisions made in the US without understanding any local context. The product and technology is good but implementation is a nightmare, channel partners are in disarray and there’s 100s of people in jobs which have such little contribution but they are doing redundancies in revenue generating roles. Zero communication, false pretences of caring about employees, share prices at an all time low but every all hands meeting and quarterly updates magically show amazing results and strong earnings. Culture of finger pointing when things don’t go well as opposed to supportive working towards a common goal. Bunch of layoffs across regions which are hush hush while hiring in those as well. It’s a mess.

Pros

Dayforce has a lot of great perks. They are a cutting-edge HCM company and are always innovating. They are 100% remote and are great with work-life balance. Pay and benefits are good, and I would put them slightly above average in both.

Cons

Work can be too siloed at times, and top-down plans are not always communicated as efficiently as they could be.

Pros

Great benefits, flexible time off, inclusivity (mostly), diverse team members. Once the team has settled from an unexpected personnel shift, work/life balance resumes. DF is really good at work/life balance.

Cons

The diversity sometimes seems like it is for show. By diversity I mean not only gender and race, but also disability. By the time you get one manager to understand your work style they play "musical managers" and you have to convince a new one that you need to be treated as an individual and not a number. And the layoffs, every February like clockwork, and they are immediate and without warning. It is best to keep your resume warm while working here.
