I cannot stress this enough, DO NOT WORK HERE. This company's mismanagement is on par with another failing tech company being eviscerated from the top down. Paycom will burn you out and throw you away like you mean absolutely nothing to them. Prior to December 13th, my experience at Paycom could be summarized as overall alright but certainly not fulfilling. I struggled to be able to do my job after our product management department experienced a high level of turn over after horrible mistreatment. This caused a ripple effect throughout the tech departments as a whole. Highly aggressive deadlines are set with no consideration for team's work loads. December 13th, they announced QA will be returning full time in the office January 16th (MLK Day by the way). The reasoning blamed our lack of communication and degradation of company culture. No statistics or data was given how this would increase productivity like they claimed it would. This obviously upset many employees as developers are being given until March to return to a 3/2 schedule opposed to 4/1. Employees were promised in their offer letters their position was remote and they allowed recruiters to promise this up until the day before. There were people that literally started on Monday thinking their job was remote 4 days and in office 1 day and the very next day were told that their schedule was now 5 days in the office. Many employees were also upset that a month during Christmas time is not enough time to find full time childcare for their new schedules. So in response to this anxiety and concern, the company opened a forum page for people to ask questions. Only vague boilerplate answers were given with zero empathy for people's feelings. Then two full weeks later they decided we must pay for speaking up that this treatment wasn't showing the company values they preach to us; they fired almost 2 dozen people. They couldn't stand the fact their precious ratings here dropped so much and the fact people posted online that they were looking for a new job. The department atmosphere right now is incredibly bleak. Everyone is scared for their jobs and afraid what Chad will do next. People are fleeing as fast as they can. I cannot stress enough, do not come work here. The treatment Chad and his goon squad has put us through the past three weeks is borderline emotionally abusive. All of this going on during Christmas all the while many large scale development projects are due. Even if you don't get fired or you don't mind working in an office, you will end up burnt out and overworked. The pay isn't even good.
