Pros

Love the culture, the people I work with and my leads and managers. Everyone in client services has been working really hard to get through the craziness of the last year.

Cons

Unrealistic work expectations. As an account manager, I’m the only one at Paylocity that talks to clients. No other teams pick up the phone and talks to clients. So what does that mean? I’m taking over 30 calls and emails a day. And I’m switching between calls and emails all day long, making it almost impossible to focus on one thing at a time. And you want me to answer all my emails in 4 hours and attend trainings and meetings, and learn all the new products we release and give great customer service? When do I have the time? It’s an unreasonable amount of work to expect from employees. No wonder why people are quitting or everyone who stays says it’s too much work. I’ve been here for a while and I see it getting worse each year.

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

Teammate relationships during difficult days.

Cons

Paying out executive bonuses and Sr leaders while mid-level and lower employees had their bonus removed and their stock options taken away. This company is the epitome of making the rich richer while allowing the employees who are busting their bottoms to drown without monetary compensation. It was heartbreaking for me to see my team unable to receive any bonus monies while our executives received millions even though the decision they made resulted in the stock price dropping by over $100.
