Culture is dying

Pros

MY relationship with my coworkers. Not Paycom.

Cons

Paycom prides itself on the culture. I love working here due to my coworkers, but nothing else. This company does NOT care about it's employees and their opinions. We are overworked and underpaid. When RTO took place, we were told we would not be expected to pick up more work. Due to high turnover, projects are being rushed and the department has been having to do overtime for every little thing.

Lied to Employees

Pros

The people I work with are great. $1 healthcare per pay period. Up until recently it felt like the company cared about employees which was nice for a minute.

Cons

Paycom lied to an entire department. People based their lives around the information provided by management. The company has told employees in our department that we were to be on a four day at home, one day in office hybrid schedule permanently. They hired me and many others with that promise that we will be hybrid remote/office employees. On Tuesday in a brash meeting they announced we are all “going back to office” full time. No warning this was coming. We were hired to be hybrid employees, not full time in office. Frankly that is one major reason I took the job. Management lied and does nothing with feedback we provide. Very sad because up until Tuesday I really thought Paycom was an honorable, reputable employer. I bragged to friends and family about where I work. No more.

Pros

If you want to sell your soul for not a lot of money this is a great place to work. The people who work here are generally people who came straight out of college, single, with no families and majority are women so we aren’t going to fight to ask for more pay even though for the amount of work we put in, we are being paid horribly. These reviews are also forced by management the first week you’re on the job in training. You are asked to write a review while you are in the class and are required to show them your post before they give you your “Paycom goodies / gear”

Cons

C levels make millions (example: 3% of their salary was 860k ... now 97% of it is the rest they are also getting paid), while they give their sales rep minimum wage across the board despite the cost of living in more expensive areas. They encourage people who work over the weekends saying - they are sacrificing for their families and if you loved your family you would do the same. They make you travel for work after work hours to make sure they squeeze every penny out of your time they are paying you for. What’s more infuriating is that when you travel they make you share a room and bathroom with a colleague, which is highly inappropriate. They micromanage on a microscopic level. Checking your daily meetings and having weekly quotas. For people who have made it to presidents club, they provided one meal a day but gave you 100 bucks for the week to spend on additional food. So for two people and five days, You were expected to pay for the additional 10 meals per person (so total 20 meals) with the the 100 dollars they gave you. Presidents club is made as a reward where ALL EXPENSES should be paid but Paycom is so cheap, they will do anything to save a couple bucks while increasing the c levels salary by 20% year over year even though as employees we can’t receive more than a 5% increase which usually happens every 2 years if you hit your number consecutively.

We're sorry to see this as your experience, especially as a current member of our team. We hope that you will consider connecting with your HR business partner to further share your concerns. We do encourage our team to voluntarily share their Paycom experience on Glassdoor if they choose, as well as many other communication channels in an effort to attract great talent. While we may have differing viewpoints, we are extremely proud of our sales team, which is comprised of a variety of backgrounds and experience levels. As you mentioned, Paycom goes above and beyond to reward its employees for their hard work and it does so by offering generous compensation and benefits in addition to a fun culture with events for top sales performers like President’s Club, where expenses for meals beyond the amount you shared are covered for our winners and their guest. We will be sure to share this feedback with our leadership team and encourage you to connect with your HRBP soon.
