      Pros

      Paycom seemed like a dream come true for a salesperson...great tech opportunity, high base pay, extremely fast growing, uncapped earning potential, great health insurance and car allowance. Add to that some very smart people and a great training program that focused a lot on the mental side of rejection and sales. I thought this was going to be a career I could see myself in for a long time! Oh boy was I WRONG... /

      Cons

      Where do I even begin? Management has to be THE worst, incompetent, biased group of people I have ever worked under. They treated you like you knew nothing and if you didn't conform to the propaganda and favoritism you were fired faster than you can blink. Add to this the constant micro management and lack or respect from other arrogant sales execs and it may be one of the most miserable places you can possibly work. The majority of the sales people in my class were fired...the rate of turnover at this place is unfathomable! They tend to fire people right after they close their first deals so that they probably don't have to pay the commission. The turnover seems to be built into their revenue model. They can fire you for no reason at all even though you are crushing quota and setting up more meetings than anyone else in the office. If you want to go back to high school and be treated like a kid again then sign up for Paycom. It literally was the worst experience of my life and I don't wish it upon anyone! Do yourself a favor and take your hard work to somewhere who appreciates it!!

      We are sorry to hear your experience at Paycom was not more positive. We demand a lot of our sales team and these expectations are made very clear prior to employment and they are rewarded as goals are met. For those who are at or exceeding quota, the earning potential and opportunity to grow quickly within a large company is unique. We recognize the sales role at Paycom is challenging and not for everyone. While we have high expectations for our employees, we have higher expectations for our managers and actively seek to support and develop their management skills. We will share your feedback with the leadership team and wish you well.

      Pros

      You can make a lot of money if you are in the right territory and have a good client base that hasn’t been oversold by previous AMs. The training is very good and you will make good friends! The people they hire are smart and fun to be around

      Cons

      If there has been high turnover in your territory it will be hard to sell as the clients have products that have not been properly implemented and are likely gun shy to purchase. It will also depend how “over promised/under delivered” their experience with new business is. The work/life balance can, and probably will, become very toxic. You are on the road constantly if you have a travel heavy territory which makes it difficult to get admin work done during business hours. You will be working before and/or after work - probably on the weekends as well. Ask for transparency in your territory assignment. You want to know how far your furthest client is as you will have to go see them in person at some point

      This is a performance-driven role with high expectations, and team members are given clear direction and the tools to succeed. Those who consistently deliver see meaningful rewards for the work they put in. Please share further feedback with your leader.
