Paycor reviews

All seemed good at first but any true professional can see the red flags within the first month. This company has a good facade and attracts new candidates by the boatload with lies and deception. The culture is misogynistic and frat-boy(esque), with leadership fear mongering their employees. They act like a true player in the HCM space but are not respected by their competitors or prospects. This is a “drink the kool-aid” kind of atmosphere where threats are thrown around daily. Unrealistic expectations and quotas. Oh did I mention MICROMANAGEMENT! The company just laid off a big chunk of their workforce (200-300) or more when COVID hit. The entire time, the message from leadership was “we’re good, no layoffs here.” And then one day, a prerecorded Zoom call to the entire company that says layoffs are coming and then invites to another Zoom call where the Chief Revenue Officer reads a 30 second script wishing us luck. But for a company to be laying off a large portion of their workforce and then to immediately begin rehiring new employees says a lot about the company. “We’re struggling financially and need to lay a bunch of people off. Oh wait, we change our mind. We just wanted to get 200-300 new people in here.” They are trying really hard to get that IPO, and will do anything to fluff the weak financials in order to do so. Also, I was already planning on leaving before the layoffs, so it all kind of worked out for me. But not so much others.

Communication between departments, confusing organizational structure/hierarchy
