The configuration options. They are not limitless, but there are more than enough ways to customize your experience, security/access, and workflows without touching code or hiring a developer team. This also means that when iCIMS updates its platform, your customizations are unimpeded.

When I reach out to the help desk or launch a ticket - it can be difficult to convey what the issue is due to language barriers. Small changes that have been suggested seem to go unheard - a specific example would be the interview feedback feature. It would be helpful to notify users when a feedback form is completed by a hiring manager - but this feature is still unavailable. We have to manually go back and check for feedback until it's delivered. This is such a small fix that has really been harmful to the credibility of ICIMS with my hiring managers. I supposed if I had to come up with a third dislike, it would be the inability to purge/archive certain items. For example, we have numerous offer letter clauses that need to be archived because they are no longer in use - since we don't have anything to replace them with - I had to relabel them as Z_Archived Z_Archived1 Z_Archived2 so that they aren't right at the top of the library and in the way when we're trying to select clauses.
