Pros

Good pay structure (base and potential commission you more than likely will never see)

Cons

Love all the new positive reviews from people just graduating sales academy (3 weeks in) and don’t know what they really signed up for. Insane turnover (around 75% within a year) micromanaging is insane, 55-60+ hr weeks, travel is so much, sales cycle is brutally long, you’re basically a BDR, AE, solutions engineer, and half of a AM all in one. Industry is super saturated and Paycom is most expensive on the market and people don’t have spare money laying around for Payroll software. Churn and burn style org while management and VPs just vacation together and flex $$$ before they fire you

Pros

* Fast learning and professional skill growth. * Great people and strong teams. * Recognized name in the OKC community. * Valuable experience that strengthens future career opportunities, especially in Tech.

Cons

Over the past couple of years, career growth has felt extremely limited. Promotions and meaningful raises have become increasingly rare, and many employees believe these decisions are being driven from the very top. Layoffs and terminations have also become common, creating a constant sense of uncertainty. High performers often take on high-visibility projects with aggressive timelines and limited support. The expectations are unrealistic, and even successful delivery doesn’t usually lead to recognition or advancement. Leadership tends to make decisions very late, creating unnecessary urgency and forcing teams into last-minute scrambles. Benefits have declined, opportunities for advancement have become scarce, and overall morale has suffered significantly. There are talented people here and it can be a good place to gain experience, but I would view it primarily as a stepping stone rather than a long-term destination.
