Pros

Working at Paylocity is the perfect balance of fun, excitement, and challenge. It really feels like the Google of the Payroll world. It's an amazing feeling to get up in the morning and be excited to start working. Some of the perks include: -Work from home flexibility *(Though, I know this varies by department.) -Casual dress code -Really nice office space -Free snacks in the lunch rooms -Great health benefits -Lots of employee events -Work/Life balance

Cons

Everything here is really awesome. The only thing I could slightly pick at would be that the PTO offering is a little light. Although, when you don't have to use a few days of your PTO on losing the will to go to work that day, it ends up more than balancing out.

Pros

Work remote. Fantastic leaders, Definitely a place I have enjoyed working.

Cons

Pay is slightly less than competitors but work life balance and culture make up for it.

Pros

The pay is decent compared to the market and the tech is solid.

Cons

The company is abandoning their strategy of "partner first" and is doing their best to become a worse version of Paychex/ADP... Every decision that comes from the top seems so disconnected with reality. Turnover is a huge problem. In just 12 months I've had turnover in my director, channel partner managers, channel support, partner services, RVP, SDR, and more. It's impossible to get anything done when every position around you is a revolving door. Everyone I speak with across lines of business has a similar story. It is a mess across the entire org.
