Pros

Working from home with flexible hours High compensation compared to similar jobs at other companies Company seems to actually care about its employees, rather than just giving lip service Technology seems to be an industry high Employees are promoted based on merit rather than length of service Friendly atmosphere and semi-annual meetings to make remote employees feel part of the team

Cons

Company growth is so fast that staffing can be an issue While still good, health benefits are not an industry leader Remote "24 hours always on" setup can lead to 12-14 hour days during busy times

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

There used to be many. By the time I left all of the pros had been phased out. The only pro was allowing some people to stay remote- but if you wanted to advance in your career you would be forced back in office.

Cons

Low pay. Micromanaging. Hiring leadership from outside Paylocity and even outside of the industry. Major and extreme departmental changes rapidly. Change is a part of business but in six months my role became unrecognizable. I was there for five years and had planned to be there for much longer. This last year was terrible. Low communication from all leadership. Higher and higher expectations of employees with no bonuses or pay raises to accommodate. My regional director was forcing people out and speaking badly about employees regularly.
