Paycom Specialist - Specialist Paycom Employee Review

Stress is very high in the payroll (PSD) department. If you are considering a position as a Paycom Specialist or New Client Setup (NCS) specialist, be prepared for stress every day. I can't speak for other departments, perhaps they are great and less stressed, but in PSD and NCS work life balance can be very difficult. Due to the work load and how they track your "availability" you may find yourself glued to your seat for literally the entire day, which isn't healthy... If you value time with your family, especially during the holiday season, this job will be tough due to "blackout" during the holidays. You'll likley miss out on family get togethers during Christmas and Thanksgiving at some point, and you will be working full days on Saturdays during that time. It's tough but it comes with the type of business paycom is in, but they need to be more up front with the demand and long hours. Work life balance at least in this particular department, is not what they say it is. All that said, I did learn something very important while working at Paycom, and that is that I value time spent with my family and friends more than I do extra money.
