Pros

Free soda machine. Get paid every 2 weeks. Honestly hard to think of pros.

Cons

Everyone will say the biggest perks are dollar insurance and catered lunches. Sure dollar insurance is great but they make up for it by paying employees less than competitors so in the end take home pay is the same or less than what other companies are offering. The catered lunches suck. When giving feedback on lunches through an ask here (HRs solution for anything) you get a canned response saying thank you for the feedback, we will give this to management then nothing happens. Lunches used to be great and well worth $4 but it’s absolutely terrible since coming back from wfh during covid. Top workplace? Who are they surveying? Typically new hires who have yet to even learn the position or management where it’s expected the rate it highly (they phrase it as highly encourage high rating reviews). They also rotate through departments and managers to go through and leave positive reviews on here in order to balance out the amount of negative reviews. Paycom used to do great things for their employees but since it has gotten bigger they don’t do anything. Or maybe they hide it behind “we give you free soda anytime you want”. Oh and we gave you an overpriced market place where you can get other kinds of snack and food because we understand the catered lunches are awful. Do I even need to go into detail about WFH?

Pros

My direct team works well together and is able to meet deadlines when realistic.

Cons

Upper management has no clue what is going on with QA and Dev and give unrealistic deadlines for projects that have already been promised to clients without them being close to finished. They just expect them to be done. It’s always quantity over quality with them. Put out more buggy projects and fix the bugs later. CIO Brad Smith told us back in 2020 that we’re not planning to go back to the office at all because we’re more productive at home and that has changed now without taking any feedback from anyone. It’s always just quick and unplanned decisions from upper management. This “paycom representative” that is responding to all of these scathing reviews I can guarantee is not reading any of them or communicating concerns to management. You can tell because every single response is a canned response that is copied and pasted.

Pros

Great people to work with. Interesting projects

Cons

Upper management does not care about their employees. They have said everyone is replaceable as they get new recruits all the time.
