Pros

Great colleagues to work with, good benefits.

Cons

Lack of Life/Work balance due to emphasis on monthly sales numbers and setup goals. Worked evenings and on vacation time. Managers are not always supportive and have no idea of the work involved. Dynamics of the implementation process changed with the introduction of new software, forcing you to take on more work load. Lack of training regarding internal procedures - management expects you to shadow a colleague but that is not realistic when your colleague is already stressed out and has not much time to spare you.

Pros

Pay and benefits. Open to telecommuting with no growth potential. String brand name, therefore easy to work with partners and vendors.

Cons

If you like old technology (mainframe and files) and a culture of lazy slackers, work here. They are the next IBM about to go obsolete!

Pros

Benefits are still very good, company is solid, and you have job security if you are willing to work the increasingly hours, and do whatever they ask, as long the job is not out-sourced. There are still many good people working there that still have the old ADP culture of collaboration and respect for associates' personal time (but they are fewer every day).

Cons

ADP has abandoned its old mantra of employee empowerment. It is now all about "the process" no matter how much unreasonable amount of work, and unproductive work at that, it adds. It has become an old-style, top-down management style company, as it struggles to push salaried people to work as many hours as possible, but still pretending to care about work-life balance. Mid-level managers are regularly caught demanding deliverables at impossible times for no other reason than just to check them of their list - not because anyone else actually needs them. What their demands do to other people is of no concern to them. More and more people are jumping ship without jobs waiting for them. If I don't find a job soon elsewhere, I will be one of them.
