Pros

At this point in my career it is difficult to think of any. The only one that comes to mind is the team leads and your co-workers. They bust it daily for the end goal.

Cons

There are so many. First, they refuse to treat people fairly or with a decent living wage. Employees hired for your same role after you have been in that position for YEARS will be brought on making substantially more than you. No matter if they have any experience in the role or not. Annual raises are at best 4% with no bonuses for anyone below a team lead level (and those below team lead are the ones doing ALL of the work for the company). Second, there are "leaders" put into very high positions that will state they don't have any idea about WHAT exactly it is that you do. Seriously? If you're going to fill a position at least have it be with someone that has experience or KNOWLEDGE as to what the department does. Finally, upper leadership needs to stop being so terrified of our CEO. He honestly no longer understands how miserable our clients are due to the lack of training/support and how horrible his employees feel with the very strict "better together" return to office policy. Offering no hybrid or remote options is limiting our talent pool and essentially reducing your stock price (which is all they care about TBH).

Pros

Some teams have great people and culture $1 healthcare

Cons

Everyone was told WFH would be permanent multiple times throughout the past 2 years until 2 days ago with some people only getting a month warning. The communication from upper management is non existent. Expected to work overtime with no extra pay to meet impossible deadlines Even when they were full remote they refused to pay for anything necessary to do so. The best they would offer you is $25 for a camera When asked about childcare we were told to "keep Paycom at the center of your decisions"
