Pros

Paylocity is the leader in innovative payroll/ hris technology for middle market clients. Once people see the WebPay system they are blown away with how simple and intuitive it is to manage payroll and human resouces. It is fun to truly help clients and work with such wonderful people.

Cons

Although Paylocity has been around for 15 years with a phenomenal reputation, the name is still new in the marketplace.

Pros

It is pleasure to work in the Data Science team. Managers are very taking care on your life/work balance. It is not too much pressure - you can learn new things, contribute to OSS, attend conferences. They are not forcing to deliver fast all the time and you have enough time to think on options and deliver good quality solutions which was interesting to build. But the real gold is the atmosphere in the team. You can rely on your peers as well as managers trust the team. As the result our team is the one of the most performing in the company

Cons

No RSUs, 4 years laptop replacement policy. Mess in the management above the Data Science team. Too often a new managers come, unclear and different directions which is changing with each new manager
