Pros

Nothing anymore as of last week.

Cons

Despite record-high client counts and growing revenue, upper leadership continues to hoard profits while refusing to offer cost-of-living adjustments or competitive pay. Leadership refuses to acknowledge the glaring imbalance of wealth, instead choosing to tighten control over employees while lining their own pockets. In a display of complete disregard for the workforce, Andy Capatelli—wearing a watch worth over $15,000—delivered the news in a video dropped at 5 PM, announcing that work-from-home privileges would be revoked in just 60 days. Employees, already overburdened with excessive workloads and relentless micromanagement, are now expected to sacrifice what little work-life balance they had left, all while leadership pretends that this unsustainable model is in the company’s best interest.

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.
