Pros

I recently started at Paycom and overall, it has been a great experience! The interview and on-boarding process was efficient and moved quickly - the whole process took about 3 weeks. Since starting with Paycom, the training has been phenomenal! There are 4-8 weeks of training (depending on when you start & the training schedules), which includes shadowing, training classes, and then going to corporate for a week-long of training. They really care about their employees and make an effort to train and prepare them to set them up for success. The people that work here are ambitious, smart, career-minded individuals. Somebody is always willing to help you out if needed, and the company atmosphere is amazing - it's a work hard, play hard environment. The company is growing very quickly, so there are a lot of great opportunities within the company!

Cons

The job is challenging! There are a lot of things that you need to learn in order to be successful in this role. So, if you're not driven and willing to put in the work, this job may not be for you!

Pros

Possibility of large commissions, attainable presidents club measurements, great foot in the door career building block. Promote from within typically.

Cons

Absolutely insane amount of micromanaging. Young, attractive people who doesn’t know any better are their ideal candidate. Be prepared to simply cold call 10-30 hours a week. Way too old school in their approach, manager is probably going to be a former rep that sold 1-2 solid deals. The lies fed from the top (especially during trainings led by executives) will start with the lines “you can’t ever get a better job and nobody has left here with a better job”. Insane, right winged company that boarders on unethical.

You’re right that the benefits of working with our sales teams are industry leading and come after a lot of hard work. It’s always important to know that these positions are not easy and Paycom makes this no secret prior to employment; this is why we are proud to provide our sales team members with ample training, leadership training, and opportunity to advance within the company. We realize that these positions will naturally not be a perfect fit for everybody, so we are forthcoming about the expectations and opportunities here at Paycom. We wish you the best in your future endeavors and will share your feedback with the leadership team.
