Pros

People are people, so you’re bound to find a few good eggs. But people here are stressed. Average employee age is 22-25, my guess is because older candidates know better and won’t put up with the workload. Everyone is suffering here together. So if you like misery, here’s your company!

Cons

-Office environment looks like it’s from the 90s. Old school water cooler, crusty coffee machine, dirty counters, depression snacks like Twinkie’s (no offense Hostess brand). -micromanaging starts day one. The trainer acts like one of those librarians that shushes you and gives you dirty looks. She tattles to your boss if you don’t look thoroughly impressed with her training (which is chipper (fake) in tone, and boring as hecky-hoo). If you like sleeping with your eyes open, this is your job! -boring product. Sure it works. But do you want to learn 200 acronyms? Today in training they told us they often don’t know what half of them mean, which leads to Sales selling clients things they didn’t need. Check out google for lawsuits settled because they are shady. Sell sell sell. No different than paychex. Turn and burn. -I’m just waiting to get fired at this point…so if you’re the type of person who wants to SHINE! And drink koolaid, maybe this isn’t the review for you.

Pros

I really enjoy my team and the people I work with. The hybrid schedule we have been on has been wonderful, however it’s ending in January

Cons

There hasn’t been a lot going well lately. We were given the news just a couple weeks before Christmas that we would be returning to office full time after being reassured many time that we would be sticking with the option of a one day in office hybrid schedule. We are expected to make huge changes in our lives with just a months notice. Many of us are struggling with this major change, and it’s clear upper management does not care at all. People with families, disabilities, and those that have moved further from the office are not being accommodated in the slightest. We were all blindsided by this and the answers we are all getting for why this is happening are emotionless, shallow, nothing answers meant to get us off their backs. There’s an attitude of get out or get used to it. “A company has values and people have values and sometimes those values don’t align” keeps being said as a cop out for any accountability from the company. These are people’s lives that they are screwing with, and it’s heartless the way they are acting. Employees that are already in office 5 days a week or would have been absolutely okay with returning to office had it been handled with more care, are also looking for a new place to work. People are being let go that are too vocal. This whole ordeal has caused such a loss of trust for all of us. Paycom loves to say ‘we care’, but how they continue to not listen to any of us, it’s clear they don’t actually. I’m not surprised they waited until after making the Oklahoma’s top workplaces list to announce this to all of us. It sucks here.
