Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We're glad to hear you are enjoying your job. Have you discussed your concerns with work overload and overtime with your manager? If not, I would recommend that you do. If you are not comfortable doing this, feel free to reach out to HR. They would be happy to discuss your concerns. Thanks again and continued success in your career.

Pros

Job is generally simple. The pay is alright, but not really competitive. The non-management team is actually amazing, but management spoils it.

Cons

A manager at the nettime office of Paychex will regularly yell at employees. He'll tell them to shut up, direct profanity at them, threaten to fire them for minor infractions, make employees cry. Upper management knows this happens, no change in his behavior. HR was alerted, no changes were made. He single handedly ruined my experience at the company. The environment is hostile.
