Pros

Cheap healthcare, catered lunches, on site gym, wonderful teammates

Cons

Paycom pays less when compared to similar companies, they took back their word on working from home, and leadership is way out of touch. Basically, if you don’t value yourself as a person and have no job experience, come work here and build up your résumé and then leave. There are no write ups or warnings ever. You will be fired without a chance to even explain your side. Only exceptions I’ve seen for this are 2 TL’s who definitely should’ve been fired years ago (and several HR complaints ago) but they somehow manage to hang on. Paycom likes to claim that they don’t do layoffs, but every year they fire dozens and dozens of people for whatever reason they choose that year. The first time that I witnessed this was in January 2023 when they decided to end remote work and bring everyone (except devs because they’re royalty) back to the office and all those who voiced their opinions were fired. Then in January 2024 teams got fired for working from home after they received approval from their supervisor and TL. They claimed that it wasn’t approved by HR and then fired all of them. Paycom‘s actions consistently show that they don’t care about their employees or value them. I feel like they like to pretend that they do by offering zoom yoga classes and bringing llamas to campus. They do all these superficial things to make it seem like they’re such a wonderful company to work for and I am truly baffled how this company wins these made up top workplace awards because I do not know a single person who loves working at Paycom. I had dedicated nearly 2 years of my life to working here and doing the best I can with the constant changes, insane workloads due to a lack of team members, and large & rushed projects but I made one mistake and was fired that day. I never complained about the ridiculous amount of overtime and stress I endured but here I am without a job.

Pros

The People Make Paycom - I really enjoy working with everyone I have had the change to work with. As someone that moved to Oklahoma from out of state, my co-workers were welcoming, and I have several current and previous co-workers that I am friends with outside the office. In addition, the clients that I work with LOVE Paycom. It is easy to come to work when you are working with clients that genuinely want your help and enjoy working with you.

Cons

There aren't many opportunities to work remotely or from home in a hybrid manner, at least not in my department. My department is also relatively new, so there are a lot of changes fairly often. I'd like to have more consistency there, but I know that will come as our department grows.

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.
