Pros

Pros: Slightly above market rate, decent benefits, hard to get fired from, great place to sit and do nothing for 8 hours a day, WFH whenever.

Cons

It's not a tech company, but an HR company. Very slow moving job. You will be asking your manager for more work constantly and be given either nothing or useless backlog tickets. They're a Microsoft shop. The culture is non-existent. Everyone eats their desks doing work. If you want to make changes or give feedback or suggest improvements in anyway, you'll most likely get shot down unless you're a 'somebody' in the company. Would not recommend unless you're over the age of 40 and want a cushy, slow moving, job.

Pros

Dayforce has a lot of great perks. They are a cutting-edge HCM company and are always innovating. They are 100% remote and are great with work-life balance. Pay and benefits are good, and I would put them slightly above average in both.

Cons

Work can be too siloed at times, and top-down plans are not always communicated as efficiently as they could be.

Pros

I was able to retire. After Dayforce, I was DONE.

Cons

I wouldn't be so quick to leave Paylocity, one disaster, for Dayforce. IF you have been there for 5+ years, you have a good territory. If you're new to the organization, expect uneven playing field and a "junior" quota. I was in HR sales for 30+ years, most of them in true Enterprise when I was hired as a mid-market rep with an unreasonably small patch. They won't tell you this in an interview so ask and then make the hiring manager provide documentation in the form of a territory listing as sadly, they're not honest and you're going to have to verify EVERYTHING you are told. Oh, and the new VP of sales is liked about as much as the last one, which is to say, not loved at all. B
