Pros

Lean, flat organization. Strong work ethic is encouraged and rewarded. Depending on your supervisor you may have lots of flexibility in scheduling, working from home, etc, but everyone works hard. Fair compensation, with decent cash and restricted stock bonus programs offered as you move up. Good 401K matching on each paycheck, Roth 401K availability, and in general you benefit by having access to ADP's employer service offerings like paycheck/401K/benefits management programs, a great Portal with company-wide org charting software

Cons

Not the most dynamic industry or company. Performance measurement is OK but career planning could be better. Opportunities are available if you work hard and seek them out but nobody will mentor you or do it for you. Morale is a bit low due to necessary headcount reductions. Headcount has reduced but workload has not - work WILL be dumped on you until you speak up, but that might be the case everywhere these days. A great stock purchase plan was recently downgraded.

Pros

High Performance is rewarded and highly valued. Many training and development programs are offered with excellent on line tools and other blended learning. The senior executives and management I am exposed to possess a great deal of integrity and are as hard working as the associates. If you look at the tenure of associates it is very high and I think that tells the story that its a great place to build your career.

Cons

There are great expectations for high performance and so if you are willing to work hard and focus on growing the business and developing your talent and help develop others talent it is very rewarding. However if you do not want to work hard or just want to skate by, nd are not a team player you wouldn't enjoy working here. ADP does expect a lot of their associates. If you want a 9 to 5 job, this is not the place for you. If you want to build a rewarding career, then you can find it here if you are willing to put in the effort required.

Pros

The company is made up of a lot of great people (sales and service). From the sales side, it's completely performance based and if you perform, you will be treated great (recognition, great trips, etc.). Turnover leads to opportunities for advancement if you are interested in management.

Cons

In today's world of blackberries and remote access, work/balance does not exist. You cannot get everything done in a day which flows into your evenings. From a service standpoint, the entire group is overworked which shows through to clients. High pressure to succeed and management can be very reactive.
