Pros

Competitive compensation structure with solid earning potential. Day-one benefits are a major plus (health, 401k, etc.). The internal platform is intuitive and easy to navigate. Plenty of perks like snacks, lunches, and free food

Cons

Base salary is on the lower end, so expect small checks for the first few months. Training is heavily product-focused but lacks practical guidance for solving real client problems, especially for those new to HR/payroll terminology. Work-life balance is more theoretical than real — flexibility is tied to hitting high performance goals like President’s Club. Leadership often leans into motivational speaking rather than actionable strategy or support. Think Keynote Motivational speaker
