Pros

Decent PTO Decent benefits Hours Ok pay Remote

Cons

Don’t even know where to start. The pay should definitely be increased. Also, they keep making all these changes to be more appeasing to their customers but adding more pressure, workload and stress to their employees. I truly see why the turnover rate is what it is. I understand that customers are important but what about the workers? If you’re looking for a company that cares for their employees, keep looking because Paycor isn’t it.

Pros

If you don’t mind working for a large company who doesn’t care about your mental health and how much you can handle, this is the place for you.

Cons

Over worked year round and they say they will help but never do. They will give you time off and say things will be handled when you are out and you come back to more work and nothing was done.
