Pros

Great product, great field-level people, and great product development engineering team. Fred Luddy is still a huge role-model!

Cons

Zero work-life balance. Lack of customer-facing collateral; always have to create new from scratch. Management all brought in from outside - no growth opportunities from field-level employees who KNOW the business first-hand. No consideration for Professional Services employees - managements solution to everything was to throw warm bodies at the problem.

Pros

ServiceNow had a differentiated platform and products. Early on the culture had a startup energy that was rare for a company this size collaborative teams, ownership, and a sense that people actually cared about outcomes. Working with large enterprise customers on complex workflows was interesting work.

Cons

The ServiceNow I joined was a different company. As headcount increased, so did the bureaucracy, layers, and friction that rewarded politics over execution. The layoffs of the last few years were handled poorly little transparency, inconsistent communication, and decisions that felt made far above with little thought for the people affected. The "cost optimization" messaging rang hollow against continued executive spending. For a company that sells workflow and people process tools, the irony of a chaotic RIF wasn't lost on anyone in the field or on customers. Leadership political dynamics were real. The right team, the right manager you had cover. Performance alone didn't protect you.
