Paychex reviews

Management treats people awful, many people complained and no one did anything about it. Three of the tops reps left the company. Micro-manager treats reps like a child. When you want to take a vacation, get ready for a guilt trip or for your sales leads to go to someone else. Billing errors constantly, price goes up and down and they can never seem to fix the problem, which falls back on the rep, it's a turn and burn job, always hunting for new business no residual income

It can be a rat race. You can get caught up in the sales vs operations war, internal sales battles, and constantly trying to hit that ever elusive "quota" month in and month out. But then again, this is sales right?? It is a HIGH ACTIVITY job, and by that I do not mean cold calling or telemarketing 12 hours a day, but being organized enough to make sure you meet with 5 different people per day. 2 new prospects, 2 CPA's and a current client. Where most people get lost is having low activity and then low numbers. At that point, your quota is "unattainable", when it really is not. Even though you do have a lot of freedom, it can also be your downfall. Happy hour is rarely unacheivable, beach in the summer is there, etc. Your discipline is what keeps you on track.
