Pros

I really can’t think of anything good that happened during my time there. The pay was pretty good, but it destroyed my life.

Cons

By far the worst place I’ve ever worked in more than 25 years. I used to start dreading the upcoming week on Saturday mornings right after my coffee. The micromanaging is simply on a level hereto unseen. They claim to care for their employees, but anyone with eyes and ears can see that is not true. If you want to have any semblance of a life, you need to stay away from Paycom. Their reputation in OKC should be tarnished in every way possible. Hope the Thunder will end their sponsorship with Paycom. One gives the city hope. The other destroys lives.
