In my opinion, the best thing about working at Paycom is the people you get to work with. I'm surrounded by so many genuinely amazing people every day- whether that is management, teammates, or employees in other departments. When you start first start here it's easy to get overwhelmed because there is a lot to learn. The company does a good job providing new hire trainings though, and with the way teams are set up, there is always SOMEONE around that can help answer any questions. Even though it’s a busy, fast-paced environment, it's fun learning to adapt and not walking into the thing every day. There are also a number of opportunities available for personal and professional growth (trainings, leadership programs, etc) for those that are interested in moving up within the company. Paycom is big on promoting from within, which is great because it means that management actually understands the needs of specialists because they’ve often been in their shoes.
Cons
Right now the biggest issue is growing pains. Growth isn’t a bad issue to have, but can have some negative effects while we adapt to all the changes. I've been here a little over a year and my department has doubled just in that time. We’re constantly adding new clients so it can be stressful keeping up with the workload, even with all of the new hires. Overtime is 100% normal in most departments, especially during year end.
