Pros

One of the better health plans available to major companies. Relaxed environment where collaboration is encouraged. Company is honestly trying to better itself so you will be asked your opinion often and changes take effect relativity quick. Freedom to control your book of clients the way you see fit and there isn't a lot of micro-managing.

Cons

The job is stressful and high paced. You must be very patient and learn extremely quickly while maintaining a professional demeanor. The starting pay proportionate to the amount of responsibility and stress, but if you do the training necessary to advance position, the pay is better.

Pros

Work/life balance can be good after working your butt off for the first 1-2 years.

Cons

If you just get by, you'll make $70K, but you have to work your butt off if you want to get to $100K.

Pros

Seeing the sad news about Trinet, with a class action lawsuit pending for fraud, makes me even more Paychex Proud!! Integrity is our core value and we live it every day.

Cons

If you don't like change and growth, Paychex isn't for you.
