Pros

Truly a great place to start your career out of college. You will learn so much about business ops and HR.

Cons

Unfortunately, the company is not what it used to be and has failed to keep up with the times. Failed leadership in the service department has resulted in some of the worst turnover I’ve ever seen. Specialists are completely overworked and it’s led to insane burnout. There has also been no flexibility with WFH, where other companies will allow it in a heartbeat to keep good employees. Paycom does not care about keeping employees for the long term. No cost of living adjustments, no raises for inflation adjustments… all while expecting five days in the office while gas prices are sky high. I have seen Paycom’s most tenured employees leave at an alarming pace the last 3-6 months. Clients are also feeling the pain of the turnover.

Pros

The work we do is challenging but is satisfying. $4 dollar lunches are great and I enjoy the people and managers I work with. We have gone through changes, but the changes are worth it and the tools we are provided keep us successful. The salary is great and top level, highly recommend working here if you love a challenge. I promise you’ll never be bored.

Cons

The workload and hours can be heavy at times, but the long-term gratification is worth it. Paycom is about long-term investment, and it requires patience and perseverance but it’s worth it, if you are strong enough.

Pros

Excellent benefits. The $1 health insurance and $0 medical bills when partnering with ZERO are hard to beat. $4 lunches daily The company does a good job recognizing and celebrating high performers. Personally, I’ve always felt appreciated for the work I do. Good workplace culture with frequent employee appreciation initiatives.

Cons

The workload has increased significantly over the past few years, but compensation hasn’t kept pace for everyone. Pay increases don’t always seem consistent across employees, even when workloads are similar. While top performers receive recognition, some employees may feel overlooked or underappreciated. The pace can become overwhelming during busy periods due to the growing workload and the department continuing to downsize.
