      Pros

      Cheap food! A company party! Sometimes candy if you're a good boy or girl!

      Cons

      Team Building here consists of your team playing Jenga for half an hour... and being cutthroat about it to win. Don't want to participate and would rather work? You must not be a team player. Fired. Problem comes up. Better hope you weren't involved in some way even if it was caused by the antique software that runs the backend and the output has to be routinely checked by hand because it can't be trusted to do simple math. Suck it up, apologize for not being a programmer and fixing it along with your other work for free and don't ever, EVER, point out it happened because of something Paycom related. Because if so? Fired. Don't like living in the office and believe your spouse and family should see you more than the company mandated family holiday (yes, it's real, it's in October and you are limited on family you can bring, so more than one kid and a spouse and you have to pick) or the occasional weekend? Don't speak out against it or you're not a team player. Fired. Honestly in my time with this company I've seen a lot of people get fired. And it never seems to be because of bad work. It's always the ones who speak their minds and want to actually be business professionals instead of playing along with the idiotic games. I've seen lots of good people just quit first the same reason. It's very much a churn and burn mentality and the turn over rate shows it.

      Based on your review, it appears you’re quite unhappy at Paycom and we hope you find a place that better meets your needs. We offer a culture of growth and opportunity unlike anywhere else in the state. We are proud of our high retention numbers and the fact that 95% of our employees reported they would recommend Paycom to their friends and family as a place to work. We understand that during certain times, such as year-end, our employees do work overtime and they are paid accordingly. Now that year-end is behind us, work schedules have returned to normal. We truly care about our employees and that shows in our events, benefits and perks. ALL immediate family members are invited to our company sponsored family events and we are sorry you were under the understanding that wasn’t the case. Currently Paycom is experiencing high growth, resulting in new opportunities for our employees, not turnover like you speak of. Your concerns have been sent to members of the senior leadership team. Thank you for all of your hard work.

      Pros

      None. Nothing. Absolutely zilch. The few things I can think of get overshadowed by the bad.

      Cons

      Micromanagement. Utter lack of respect for employees as adults. High school feel right down to the cafeteria with cliques, gossip, and the added stress of trying to be a professional, for some, thrown on top. I'd say you're treated like a galley slave but at least they don't have the people whipping, pushing and abusing them smiling in their face and lying about how much they're valued. The cheerful, forward, radical front they put up us a facade. It's terrible. Go anywhere but here if you value your professionalism, you personal life, and your very sanity.

      Pros

      Once a year the company throws a huge party with an open bar and you can get completely smashed and forget you work for Paycom for an evening.

      Cons

      The above is only one night a year and getting that hammered the other 364 days of the year to forget about working for Paycom is getting tiresome.
