Pros

They feed you and give you drinks to keep you quiet about how they over work you for a terrible wage.

Cons

The pay is so low but in reality you dont even need a degree to work here so what can you expect. You are a dime a dozen there. They brag about culture but again, it is so you are distracted from the amount of work you are expected to do for the low wage. They start you at a low wage and it doesnt get much better unless you move up from Account Manager (call center agent is a better word for this) to Team Leader. This is a popularity contest at best. It doesnt matter if you do a good job or not, as long as people like you.

Wow – thank you for telling your story, we must’ve totally missed the mark with your experience and that’s clearly not what we want for anyone. Sure, we offer everyone healthy snacks like hummus and avocados, but it’s definitely not meant to be a substitute for anyone’s wages. We want everyone here to be successful and grow their career, and having a fair total rewards package is an important part of that. I’m at least glad that you were able to have part of that the experience we’re working towards – advancing through our Operations teams and eventually leading your own team. We promote people based on their skills and abilities (hopefully popularity isn’t being factored in) and we’re sure that’s why you were recognized and rewarded in your career. We take our culture and employee experience super seriously because we know how important it is – it's there to support everyone on our teams so that they’re set up to succeed (okay fine, we might brag about it a little from time to time). We’re sad that you decided to move on from Paylocity, but we appreciate you giving us this feedback, thank for everything and we wish you the best of luck in the future!

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.
