Pros

Great moral with GREAT Team Leads in the Dallas office. Plenty of work incentives like almost free healthcare for employees (though the plans not that great, you can't complain much when you only pay $1). Free meals are frequent and lots of Paycom swag.

Cons

LOW LOW LOW pay for Dallas location, not competitive and 100% lower than the national average according to glassdoor. No real growth opportunity past a senior specialist in Dallas. Paycom's response to another Dallas employee was that they have a leveling up program, though that levels out at Senior Specialist. It said to talk to their TL, though that's been done many times with nothing but a "sorry, that's how it is". Expect 10 hour work days (there's those free lunches). These are not only during busy times here. Many specialists eat lunch at their desks most days of the week, come in early and stay late.

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.
