      Pros

      The opportunity to grow and better yourself at Paycom is evident in most all of the positions and proof of noticeable in most employees. You can move up by accomplishing the items listed on your employee path and receive due compensation for doing so. PSD pushes you to new/untold limits as not only a team member or employee but a person. It takes a certain type to thrive in this environment but it can be worth it. You can truly grow to be a better professional and person just by working at Paycom. If you're looking to push yourself and for a daily challenge this could be the place for you. It may be cliche for Paycom, but the kool-aid is delicious, the culture is awesome and the people are even better.

      Cons

      While constantly adding new products and enhancing/changing existing new products, Specialists are expected to learn and adapt to what can be MAJOR changes without notice. Most notably, adding an entire ACA product in the middle of 2015 without fully training the PSD Specialists and even the CRRs and TSRs has created a huge problem for our year end processing. We were not prepared and things are constantly changing without acknowledgement and especially without any increased compensation for tripling the workload in PSD. Letting other positions garner commission on signing paperwork while forcing others to complete 99% of the work does not motivate those who carry the company on their shoulders.

      Thank you for all that you do for our clients. We realize the additional workload associated with ACA setup and greatly appreciate our employees resilience during year-end. The ACA has changed numerous times, but we have been training our employees on this monumental piece of legislation since 2014. Again, we appreciate all that you do to ensure our clients experience another seamless year-end. We’ve sent your concerns to members of our senior leadership team.

      Pros

      * Fast learning and professional skill growth. * Great people and strong teams. * Recognized name in the OKC community. * Valuable experience that strengthens future career opportunities, especially in Tech.

      Cons

      Over the past couple of years, career growth has felt extremely limited. Promotions and meaningful raises have become increasingly rare, and many employees believe these decisions are being driven from the very top. Layoffs and terminations have also become common, creating a constant sense of uncertainty. High performers often take on high-visibility projects with aggressive timelines and limited support. The expectations are unrealistic, and even successful delivery doesn’t usually lead to recognition or advancement. Leadership tends to make decisions very late, creating unnecessary urgency and forcing teams into last-minute scrambles. Benefits have declined, opportunities for advancement have become scarce, and overall morale has suffered significantly. There are talented people here and it can be a good place to gain experience, but I would view it primarily as a stepping stone rather than a long-term destination.
