Pros

Sometimes work is very interesting, client centered problem solving.

Cons

The company is trying to develop and serve clients at the same time. The do not have institutional knowledge because of rapid turnover. Despite what they want the world to read! They actually make new employees write glowing reviews!

Innovation is the name of the game at Paycom and we are lucky that our employees are engaged and actively looking for ways to enhance all that we have to offer, both as a leading HR and payroll software developer and as a service-oriented organization. We absolutely do not make new employees write reviews and encourage everyone to tell others about their experience at Paycom. As a high-growth organization, we are continually developing our leaders and employees to help us better lead our industry. Best of luck to you in your future endeavors.

Pros

Get to meet new people every day, the environment and culture is amazing, and I am always welcomed wherever I go!

Cons

Stressful getting the hang of things. Took a couple months. Very worth sticking around because there is great potential to move up.

Pros

- Base salary - PTO - Awesome colleagues - $1 Medical PPO offering

Cons

- Upper leadership seem to not value the operations department as much as they do with sales. They are not consistent as well, which causes them to change the entire department's job description, expectations, & commission structure every few months. Change is good but huge change every 3-4 months is so exhausting. - They overload you with too many clients to handle while increasing the number of internal calls. When asking for support from sales or middle management, its typically a hard negotiation or non-existent. Expect to work way over 40 hours/week and juggle 10-20+ clients at a time. - Sales will oversell on product & implementation expectation which makes the job 1000% harder. Turnover with sales is extremely high so don't expect for even the best reps stay as they either leave, get fired because quota was not met, or the new manager will cut them if they're "not the vibe". You get left with the newbies who does not know how to sell or support you when you need them. - Every role in this company has high turnover in general. Making it very hard to cross collaborate with other departments as everyone is either extremely swamped or new to the role and cannot support as well, - Being forced to go to Oklahoma for training every year, sometimes twice a year.
