Pros

WFH, Decent Benefits. Literally nothing else

Cons

Extremely corporate. Meetings at 8am and 5pm. Bosses who don't look at your calendar for availability before dropping another meeting on it. Multiple team meetings a week that are unproductive and unnecessary. Heaven forbid your camera is ever off during any of them. Interview for one department and get bait/switched to another that pays even less. Salaries are seriously below industry and market average and to make any kind of commissions you're going to have to put in way more than a 40 hour week. Cliques like in high school. The turnover is massive and for a reason. This is one of the few GlassDoor company reviews pages that are spot on accurate. Pay attention to them. The only people happy are those who don't know how much better it is elsewhere and have consumed the kool-aid. I can't quit soon enough.

Pros

Paychex is a great company to work for. I’ve held multiple roles over 20+ years. There are always ups and downs, but for every position, manager, decision I disagree with, there are ten others that are outstanding.

Cons

It’s a large company with many opportunities to grow, but smaller companies may offer higher compensation.

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.
