Pros

- Wide-ranging benefits package that appeals to employees in all stages of life: $1 health insurance premiums, pet insurance, FREE life insurance and disability insurance, $4 lunch on campus every day, and more! - Fast growth company: leaders genuinely care about their employees' development and career trajectory and there are plenty of opportunities for growth - Competitive pay and generous PTO: no "use it or lose it" policy - Constant innovation and creativeness encouraged: employees are encouraged to collaborate and provide feedback that leads to innovation - Friendly atmosphere: events and spaces are made available for employees to socialize and take breaks

Cons

- High expectations: Paycom requires a lot of their employees; however, they're provided with the resources and tools they need to be successful. If you're willing to work, this isn't a con!

Great Place to Work and Grow - Fast Paced and High Expectations

Manager of implementation

Business Outlook

Pros

Paycom is a place where you're going to grow - quickly. The company sets a high bar, but if you're someone who's driven, open to feedback, and how to win, you are going to have endless opportunities. I've had direct access to leadership, mentorship from smart, capable teammates, and genuinely felt my skills level up daily. The compensation and benefits are solid and you aren't going to find a more mission driven, client focused org.

Cons

The pace isn't for everyone. Expectations are high and working in tech means that things change quickly. There's not always a cookie cutter answer and the people who are successful are able to learn and figure things out quickly.
