Pros

ServiceNow has some of the smartest folks I’ve ever met. At the lower levels, it’s a very collegial group of great hires. There’s great salaries and benefits.

Cons

Getting way too top heavy with newly hired middle management, who are often unfamiliar with the Platform. Increasingly, it’s become very hierarchical and has lost the more democratized feel and energy that was there 5 years ago. Most concerning is the current culture which stifles any questions or innovation.

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.
