Pros

Company is doing very well and always growing Flexible PTO is just as it sounds. Combined with Take 2 and WFH, work life balance is very good Flexible benefits plan is more intuitive than a 1 size fits all Company is in a transition period with technology and new technologies are right around the corner

Cons

Although in a transition period when it comes to technology, for the next few years there's still a ton of legacy support needed, making support and development harder overall. For a company that advertises great benefits, it is average/below average when it comes to competing with modern software companies. Flexible benefits plan could be more flexible. Great 1st step in getting rid of 1 size fits all, but the options are too radically different. Going to the 4th level to get eye care coverage when that's all I need is a waste. No onsite gym. They counter this by giving a $200 fitness reimbursement but compared to some office jobs that have an onsite gym + free fitness/yoga classes this covers very little.

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
