Pros

I really can’t think of anything good that happened during my time there. The pay was pretty good, but it destroyed my life.

Cons

By far the worst place I’ve ever worked in more than 25 years. I used to start dreading the upcoming week on Saturday mornings right after my coffee. The micromanaging is simply on a level hereto unseen. They claim to care for their employees, but anyone with eyes and ears can see that is not true. If you want to have any semblance of a life, you need to stay away from Paycom. Their reputation in OKC should be tarnished in every way possible. Hope the Thunder will end their sponsorship with Paycom. One gives the city hope. The other destroys lives.

Pros

* Fast learning and professional skill growth. * Great people and strong teams. * Recognized name in the OKC community. * Valuable experience that strengthens future career opportunities, especially in Tech.

Cons

Over the past couple of years, career growth has felt extremely limited. Promotions and meaningful raises have become increasingly rare, and many employees believe these decisions are being driven from the very top. Layoffs and terminations have also become common, creating a constant sense of uncertainty. High performers often take on high-visibility projects with aggressive timelines and limited support. The expectations are unrealistic, and even successful delivery doesn’t usually lead to recognition or advancement. Leadership tends to make decisions very late, creating unnecessary urgency and forcing teams into last-minute scrambles. Benefits have declined, opportunities for advancement have become scarce, and overall morale has suffered significantly. There are talented people here and it can be a good place to gain experience, but I would view it primarily as a stepping stone rather than a long-term destination.
