[LEONARD, VP, GOBAL PRODUCTS & TECHNOLOGY] So the story that I like to tell candidates when they come here is specifically around the passion and the purpose-driven culture that we have.
I like to tell the story about the clients that we support today, whether it be a gig economy type of company or a big retail industry.
Oftentimes, I actually take these individuals to actually go see a client to be able to show them the real-life workings of how our product and technology supports them on a day-to-day basis.
And very, very often, being able to put technology and how we support the client together really puts pen and paper together in the realities of what we do to help support these companies on a day-to-day basis.

[LAURIE, VP PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT] What I love about working at ADP Pasadena is this is such a diverse atmosphere. It is an open floor plan. We have so much energy in this building. You walk in and you cannot do anything but feel empowered by the vibe in this place. It is so much fun to be here. You'll hear people yelling and designing. And then there's people in there playing ping pong. And then there's the quiet meetings. Like it is just-- the energy that happens here is unmatched by any of the locations I've worked at in ADP.
So working here at ADP, we have a very dynamic workforce. It's very exciting. We deal with statutory work. We deal with legal work. We deal with a lot of the fun tech stuff. So if you're a person who really is great with change and can just do things off the cuff, then you are a perfect fit for us.
If you take things seriously and really care about the client, we would love to have you here at ADP. That's what I look for and that's what we look for-- passion, caring, innovation, agility. You will fit right in. We love diversity of all types. Different ideas to the table make the best product. People who aren't afraid to step up and give your idea. The world is open to innovation.
So why I would choose to work for ADP over a startup here in Southern California is because you get the best of both worlds. We have the fun technology, all of the cool stuff that the startups are offering. We have the stability of being with a company that has been in business for so many years with such a proven track record.

Video: Why I Returned to ADP
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[LOGO: ADP, Always Designing for People]
[TEXT: Anjani, Design Engineer] ADP was my first job when I completed my Bachelor's, and so I think that's that special bond that I have. And I always lean towards ADP because I liked the culture. I moved and worked to different companies, as well, but that is what kept pulling me back-- that the culture is great, people are great.
In 2013, June, is when I joined ADP India. I joined as a fresher and the team was good, great. I worked there for two years. I moved to US to do my Master's. And when I was doing my Master's, I did internship at Florham Park, New Jersey, as an intern. And then once I completed my Master's, I worked at another company. But within five months is when I found a very great opportunity here at Pasadena.
The location is great, so I thought, why not? And I just made a move. And I've been here for two years one month, and I'm loving it.

Video: Solving Complex Problems. Is It for You?
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[TEXT: Aimee, UX Designer]
[DESCRIPTION: Aimee works on a laptop]
There’s a lot of challenging work here. For me, I really like to grow and expand and I want to be challenged. And I really like the complexity of the problems I get to deal with on a day-to-day basis that challenge me and my skills.
And it’s really exciting, like I feel like we’re on the cutting edge. Like I don’t think there’s another company that has actually done what we’re in the midst of doing right now. So there’s a really great opportunity to kind of be part of something that’s going to be setting an example for other companies in the future.

Video: Work Life Balance and Flexibility at ADP
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[TEXT: Jonathan, Senior UX Manager]
One of the things that I really love about ADP is its flexibility. They’re flexible with the work environment. They’re also flexible in how you learn and how you grow.
[TEXT: Omi, Application Developer]
I was working in a big tech company and I didn’t like the whole coaching environment over there. And as a youngster, I love my work life balance, which I find in ADP much more interesting. I am more fitness freak, plus also like, I’m very passionate about my work as well. And I think ADP gives me all those opportunities, which was really hard for me to find somewhere else.
[TEXT: Neha, Sr. UX Manager]
I still have a very good work life balance. I have a toddler at home, I get to spend time with them. But I like what I do and ADP helps me do that.
[JONATHAN]
That is really what is most exciting about joining a company like ADP where you want to have that support. You want to have leaders that are behind you and that empower you to do the best you can to build the best products and overall, serve our clients in the best way we can.

[LOGO: ADP, Always Designing for People]
[TEXT: Omar, Application Developer]
I actually started out here as an intern. I applied for the position two years ago. What kind of made me look into ADP itself was kind of, I had noticed the name ADP before, what it stood for. Its purpose. And the recognition it has in the industry, as a company.
So right off the bat, right away, I was like, OK, great. That’s probably a good position. I ended up applying two weeks later. I got a call from one of our associates here. I had the interview over the phone, and a week later, I was in the office.
It was a great experience to have a fresh out of college, going into a company like ADP. Fast moving, and I’ve learned so much in the last few years. It’s been a great journey so far.
Why do I stay at ADP? More than anything, I would say, the culture, the people, and the inclusion of being part of something greater. Here at ADP, I feel like, regardless of where you come from, we have people from all different cultures, different experiences, right? All different types of places.
And here, [it] doesn’t matter where you come from. If you are a junior programmer or barely getting into the field, if you have ideas, you’re more than welcome to share those ideas with everyone here. You have the ability to create. People really take your ideas to heart. It’s a company where you, I feel like, gives you a vessel where you can create and show your creativity.
