Pros

Flexibility in your schedule. This does promote work/life balance as long as you have the professionalism to handle managing 95% of your own time.

Cons

While promoting from within is a great idea, Paychex tends to promote because of longevity vs. experience. Too many managers have no tangible experience outside of Paychex and therefore bring nothing to the table.

Pros

Paychex is a great company to work for. I’ve held multiple roles over 20+ years. There are always ups and downs, but for every position, manager, decision I disagree with, there are ten others that are outstanding.

Cons

It’s a large company with many opportunities to grow, but smaller companies may offer higher compensation.

Pros

People and the overall environment is a positive one. If you do your part, definite long term career potential. It’s not easy- but stable, growing. Worth serious consideration for early career looking for sales experience with a great training program. Also good for mid-career consideration if base salary isn’t the primary reason you are in sales.

Cons

Very fast pace that doesn’t suit everyone. If you are looking for easy or just a job to “hang out”, this probably isn’t the right spot for you.
