Pros

For anyone looking into a sales role at Paycom, this is the right fit for you if you aren't afraid of hard work and want to be the best person/professional/sales rep possible. The training program is by far the best experience I have been a part of where we came out of it ready to close deals on our own, where we learned directly from the best sales people in the organization, and where we were challenged to be people of high character. Could not speak more highly of my experience.

Cons

The training was lengthy, so you will need to be prepared to spend time away from your family/friends. Still very worth it, but it is a commitment.

Not worth the burnout

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.
