Pros

I am a new hire completing 3 months at ServiceNow. Right after getting the offer letter, I have been highly impressed by the pre-boarding and onboarding plan they offer. That is one of the ServiceNow products in the HRSD (Human Resources Service Delivery) domain. The company believes that we are our first customers, so we can get feedback from the employees and act on it to deliver high quality products for customers. ServiceNow is the market leader in Enterprise software segment in which it operates, and it has visionary and transparent leadership, which helps us do better every year. In my team, every individual's role is very well defined, and everyone knows what they are supposed to do, and what is the expectation from them. So I would say the processes are quite matured in the team. Work life balance is decent, national holidays are more than the average holidays given in other companies. In 2022, we have 13 national holidays, and are given 4 additional days off as corporate well being day. Medical benefits are average, I have had better benefits in previous job. They say unlimited vacation time off, but I have yet to see how much people actually take and how much is normally approved, but I have heard that people take up to 4 weeks normally. Bonus on base salary and stocks compensation is decent in my opinion. To sum up - Great products, leadership knows the direction in which they want to grow the company in the next decade, so overall I am very happy to be part of the ServiceNow family.

Cons

Not really a con, but this is a subjective opinion based on my past experience. I am in the Quality Engineering group, and I feel the role of a QA is very compartmentalized in the sense that I only do testing related duties. There is not a lot of room to contribute and grow in other areas such as story planning, scope, prioritization, collaboration and coordination with program and product management, etc in this role. This is because of a pro I have mentioned that the processes are quite matured. But the same situation can be converted into advantage if you switch the role within the company.

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.
