A complete but super intuitive software!

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

My company implemented Pando to help us with career and performance management last quarter. After using several tedious and confusing tools for this purpose in my previous jobs, Pando was a ray of sunshine for me! It is a super complete but very intuitive software. You always know when/where actions from you and your managers are required - you are always on top of the situation! You have a clear career path available, with associated levels and capabilities. You also have examples and clarification throughout the entire process, making your life easier when you are thinking about complex questions like "where do you see yourself in 5 years".

Cons:

It can be a bit exhausting at some point when filling out the assessment - as it is very complete, it requires a lot of work and a lot of time available: creating goals and actions given examples and associating skills.

A tool that supports individual progression and drives transparency and accountability

Pando provides a robust set of tools to aid in several aspects of professional development. Yes, it helps with performance management, allowing us to see how someone might be falling short of expectations. But it's also a tool that is helping drive important career conversations between employees and managers that can often get overlooked in the course of day-to-day priorities. If we can get it right, we believe we'll be able to better engage with our top talent and drive continuous clarity and recognition throughout their career progression.

Functionality

Pros:

This tool is helping us drive the right kind of clarity into our development and progression programs for employees. It centers around competencies for each role, which are visible to the entire organization. This creates a huge leap forward in creating both transparency and equity in how individuals are level-set across the company. And it puts individuals back into the driver's seat, by helping them understand what's behaviors and skills they need to demonstrate at their current level as well as every level above them.

Cons:

The tool is still in its early days, so some critical admin reporting features aren't available yet which are important for us to drive usage and understanding of how our people are using the tool. I'm in regular contact with reps at Pando and know a lot of this functionality is on the roadmap or currently being developed so we fully expect to have more self-service control soon.

Pros:

Pando is an incredibly impactful software for career/professional development. It allows for a user-friendly and seamless way of tracking employee progress on competencies related to their job function, and provides an avenue for employees to take ownership of their own career development.

Cons:

Pando is very early-in in its development, which means that some features/functionality are still being built. That said, the Pando team is incredibly collaborative with their customers and involve them in the roadmapping and planning process so that they're truly prioritizing the features that customers want and need.

Highly rate Pando

Pando helps us calibrate team members on their current level, expectations for performance and areas for development. It helps us engage and retain employees while ensuring their development is aligned with company goals.

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

Pando has built in competency-rubrics, and a library of competencies which we were able to use to build our performance framework. The team helped us integrate our values into the rubric to align values with team performance. The real-time feedback and structure ensures transparency around how employees are performing at a given time, and empowers them to take their development into their own hands.

Cons:

No problems yet, so far so good, we are just ramping up the usage.

Pros:

Pando makes something that is usually piecemeal and spread over a lot of Excel documents... easy to review, update and access at all times by both managers and individual contributors. Though not part of its software the implementation and the support from the industrial/org development folk was particularly useful.

Cons:

There are some areas like user experience that needs some building out, but this will happen over time.
