Pros

The Good: The company values their clients and works on a monthly basis to release developments based on their needs and the markets to be an industry leader. I can't tell you how proud I felt to be a part of an organization that was constantly working to improve. The training is absolutely incredible. It's non-stop and not just on the product. Paycom invests in technology and they invest in their people in a big way. Growth Opportunity. I was constantly seeing people being promoted into management and actualizing their dreams at Paycom. With the companies growth there is plenty of room to move up! Money. One of the best commission structures I've seen for sales reps in the industry. The earning potential here is incredible. My colleagues. Paycom hires the best and the brightest and my peers are some of the most fun and inspiring people I've ever met. You will make friends for life here.

Cons

If you're a true sales hunter type the work/life balance can be challenging your first year but if you build your pipeline and stick it out it will pay off year two. There will also be a bit of a learning curve so the new people that I've seen be really successful are the ones who can hit the ground running and "fake it till they make it."

Pros

I always recommend my candidates to go online and read our Glassdoor reviews because I believe they can be beneficial when searching for a company to grow their career- however, sometimes you will acquire a review from a previous employee- one who would rather murmur behind a computer screen rather than express their feelings to their leaders. Here's the deal- as a sales recruiter, you are expected to meet a quota (just like all other sales positions in this company) and you work under stressful situations (just like all other sales positions in this company). The leaders in our department are very flexible and encouraging- we have monthly 1-on-1's to benchmark goals and strategize. They are open to conversation and suggestions on how to make not only the department better, but also the recruiting process-- they also hold all employees to a standard- an achievable standard. This position isn't for everyone and it's easy to place blame in others rather than to look in the mirror and measure your own performance and where you possibly fell short. You define your own success in this role- the leaders are there to help. I'd recommend this position to any one who is looking for a career in sales who doesn't want to be in the field!

Cons

The parking lot and vacation time-- we need more exits and travel time!

Pros

Good company culture, managers look to motivate, cheap healthcare, best product on the market for our target.

Cons

No cost of living adjustment (insane), Outside sales will do anything to get a new deal and the reps/managers have the "someone else can clean my mess" mentality, leaving you doing a ton of work you will not see a dollar from.
