Pros

Fast Paced and High Pay

Cons

Paycom cares a lot about Paycom. As a company they are incredibly focused on driving their market cap and they do not really care about the impact it may have on their clients or employee's to get there. Other competitors in this space will evaluate their prospects to make sure they can handle their needs 'before' selling them. Paycom will do anything they can to just close the deal. Then once its closed they try to figure out how to make it all work out. Since the reps are involved in the sales process and the implementation they get stuck in the middle and it can be incredibly high pressure and very stressful. I have been with Paycom for over a year now and I am actively looking for an exit because I believe this office is really struggling to keep its top reps as well as maintain a positive brand in the Atlanta market. The software is good and there are some really great people to work with at Paycom but the overall culture at Paycom is high stress and pressure. I have several awards at Paycom but still will have my job threatened if I go over a few months without a deal closing. Its incredibly disheartening having to always worry if I will get fired when a deal pushes out a few months. Luckily I'll be gone soon and on to better things but other candidates looking to work here just need to be careful before jumping in.

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.
