Pros

ADP offers great business and is a good place to start your career. Some of the middle managers are young and if you are positive will allow you to offer suggestions and ideas.

Cons

The pay is dismally below industry average. After working for three years and receiving recognition from management and being a top producter, pay was still at 33k. Senior management is awful and seems to be sent to ADP Screening and Selection as a dying ground for bad management that has not performed well in other ADP areas. Management is unprofessional and micromanages to a degree that is unheard of as most companies are moving more toward the GE and Google models of innovation and creativity and freedom as what makes employees loyal and productive. Management also enacts client-facing policies to the detriment of the company. This is a good place to get your feet wet if starting your career. Do not consider this if you are an experienced professional, however. The degree of burearcray and incompetence will be shocking.

Pros

great benefits, great training and skill building position for an outside sale rep.

Cons

Extremely unperfessional management team. Cursing, yelling, embarrising, talking down to sales reps is a norm in the office. They treat the reps like children asking them to "see your cell phone". Reps are given false promises of being promoted if they meet goals. This NEVER EVER happens. The highest acheivers are NEVER promoted to a higher sales division yet they are always promised they will be "just one more quarter" on exceeding your quota and "well put you in management" or "send you to a higher sales division". The only reps that stay longer then a year are the ones who fall for this promise, continue to exceed company goals, and end up on the job 4-5 years in entry level untill they finally give up and leave.

Pros

The training is great if you have time to do it between your work. It is not given the necessary time to complete however it is great information. You are also a part of a great company and good on the resume. Benefits are great!

Cons

I did the mistake of coming here from a competitor. Be prepared to work long hours, reserach everything on your own, and not have any support from management at all. My manager does not treat me like Im new and not willing to help at any cost. Huge dog eat dog corporate environment so not a good place if you want a comfortable and safe work environment. Everything is last minute here and nothing is structured or organized. Coming from a competitor, they do not care about their clients that much which is hard for a person who takes pride in their work. Also, the recruiter will lie to you in the interview, she told me about a bunch of benefits I would have and once I started they said nope, so get it in writing!
