Pros

RSU's upon joining, although I hear new staff no longer recieve them. Good service desk product.

Cons

To be frank, do NOT join ServiceNow if you: 1. Want a long term career where you move up through the ranks based on merit. 2. Expect a payrise within 3-4 years of tenure. 3. Expect clarity on metrics that clearly outline what you need to do, to be successful and subsequently promoted. The team has a select and small group of so called star performers who by virtue of their relationship with senior management receive benefits and regular promotions. It's sad to see the grafters including myself being regularly overlooked. This is the bulk opinion of a lot of peers. Management do nothing to encourage the more senior guys to assist the new hires during their onboarding. It's very much a them and us culture. Our HR department churns staff like crazy and it's a maze to channel feedback to them.

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.
