This place has lost its way.

Pros

There are a lot of nice extra extras like snacks, free coffee, they serve you lunch once a week. They run fun events occasionally.

Cons

This company has lost its way. Employees are treated like numbers, not human beings. If you want to get promoted, there's no clearly defined path. Its litterally all about who your manager is, not the quality of your work. Theres blatant favoritism. They micromanage to extreme levels now at the direction of new directors. Ive been with paylocity for almost a decade now, i used to feel valued as an employee, I used to feel pride working here but its totally gone.
