Pros

The people (depending on your team) can be great. I was staffed on a team that was known for hanging out, mentoring, and supporting one another. We get along great.

Cons

The company has been going downhill from a workers perspective for a while now. Small things like Hybrid -> In Person, new guidelines on what you can/can't wear to the office, but also big things like getting rid of promotion guidelines and performance tracking altogether. There used to be a rigid system that gave some clarity on how your performance was every month, and based on that performance, you would automatically be eligible for a promotion based on your pace. This was a huge plus for the company in my eyes originally. They did away with that a year ago, and also laid off much of the staff like testers, project managers, and product managers, that made it so developers could focus on writing code. Since then, developers were expected to take on the roles of all of these lost positions, and essentially the job devolved into something nobody signed up for. The pace slowed down, and code frequently got pushed to future deadlines because of reasons out of our control (no available testers usually being one of them). It seems that whoever is at the top of these decisions doesn't have a good sense of what is going on at the workers level.

Pros

Paycom offers very competitive starting pay for the Oklahoma City area. The medical benefit is only $1 for employee only coverage. They also offer something called the Zero Card for medical coverage as well for no cost. Highly recommend using the Zero Card if able to be used. The card can save a significant amount of money. Many of the immediate supervisors and peers you work with are professional. Overall the people are a pleasure to work with.

Cons

There are a lot of changes going on currently. As someone who prefers stability the last two years have been extremely challenging. The workload seems quite excessive as multiple departments have been consolidated. In the last two years I had leaders change about every three months for various reasons. Automation within the company has eliminated many positions this past year. Changes have been made to the medical plans so that several medications are no longer covered. This is extremely unfortunate especially because no one was notified until after open enrollment was completed. One medication for diabetes treatment and weight loss was cut, the company response essentially was "we have a gym, please use it. "
