Pros

The nice bunch of people I work with at the Albuquerque Service Center (ASC) is the best thing about my job as a payroll specialist. There is a lot of information to keep track of while helping clients with their payroll, and coworkers and supervisors are always willing to help out with finding the necessary info. One of the really great things about working at the ASC is the branch manager, Rich Willis. When we have really busy days, he treats us to ice cream and other snacks to help our morale, as well as authorizing overtime if we need it (to catch up with client projects and even with our internal continuing education for career advancement). It is obvious that he cares about us as employees and as people (empathy is rare in managers in most companies). I feel very fortunate to work for Rich!

Cons

The pay could be a little higher, but our manager is working on this!

Pros

People and the overall environment is a positive one. If you do your part, definite long term career potential. It’s not easy- but stable, growing. Worth serious consideration for early career looking for sales experience with a great training program. Also good for mid-career consideration if base salary isn’t the primary reason you are in sales.

Cons

Very fast pace that doesn’t suit everyone. If you are looking for easy or just a job to “hang out”, this probably isn’t the right spot for you.

Pros

Remote work is a plus. Collaboration from peers is more plus than minus. Documentation of business technology was great for the most part.

Cons

Worse holiday observance company I ever worked for. Pay is low for what is asked. Work/life balance was good until 2025. Mid-level leadership and above is not ideal. I had little guidance when I started so, especially from manager so had to figure things out with help of peers.
