Pros

While some see the "culture and benefits" as a pro, that won't keep employees for the long haul. If you quantify pros there could be many, however there aren't really any quality reasons to work here.

Cons

The corporation employee nightmares are made of. Financialization in its most sinister form. Most of the positive reviews are most likely false, employees are terrified they will lose their jobs in most client facing departments. People cry and have panic attacks everyday. It's sad when management claims to know who posts each negative review, no wonder people hide behind fake words. Why wouldn't they post a euphemistic review pretending things are great?

Thank you for the candid feedback. As a current employee, we definitely don’t want you to feel insecure about your job security or for any employees to suffer from issues with anxiety. Secondly, we want employees to know they are heard. This is why we have our Employee Assistance Program and anonymous reporting hotline and we hope you will take the opportunity to use those resources available to you. Regarding Glassdoor reviews, we can definitively say they are completely anonymous and voluntary based on their terms of service and our participation as an employer. We hope you’ll take advantage of the resources available to all Paycom employees.

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.
