Pros

Paycom has changed my life personally, professionally, and financially so much in the time that I've been here. We are extremely fast moving which means tons of opportunities to move up within the organization. The culture is great, the pay is great, the benefits are great. Don't pass up on the opportunity!

Cons

It's a hard job and not everyone can do it. If you give it the time it requires to learn the job, I don't believe there is a better place to be than at Paycom!

No Work-Life Balance, No Diversity, Fake Reviews

Pros

Pay can be great. Cheap health insurance if you don't have a family.

Cons

Where do I begin? No work-life balance. I get it. It's sales. But a company that doesn't value its employees' mental health is a dangerous place to work. Horrible PTO policy. You're a software company, Paycom. Do you not research what other tech companies are doing for their employees and the benefits of allowing more time to relax? I didn't see the point in making good money without having the time to spend it to travel and explore at least once a year. High turnover. I mean, with no time off and management that doesn't value your mental health, why wouldn't you want to quit? I did. No diversity whatsoever. Feel free to search Paycom on LinkedIn for verification. This may be more of an opinion... but I am 99% sure a lot of these "Great Company!" reviews are fake. It's easy to tell by reading them.

We understand that the demands of our sales positions are high and we make that as transparent as possible for our applicants. We know that these positions will not be an ideal fit for everyone and are saddened to see your experience was not more positive. We are proud of the employee reviews we have and would point out that not everyone shares the same views as you do, and it’s an unfair assessment to project yours as the only valid experience. We will share your feedback with the leadership team and wish you the best.
