Pros

Co-Workers are friendly Get to work on challenging problems Transparency with leadership to your hear problems but very little action.

Cons

Nothing makes Paylocity that special anymore. If you are a good engineer you will be expected to give all you can and more. Management wants quality but lacks ability to lead or enforce it. Every manager is looking for their next promotion while status quo is the same. We continue to grow and take more away from our employees. Paylocity is not a leader and is only reactionary while having the “most modern” HCM solution. A lot of internal career opportunities are now overseas, limiting the options for internal movement for US Based Employees

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

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.
