- Former Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Great culture, team support, great benefits
Cons
Potential for mental burnout dealing with consecutive calls, emails during tax season
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Pay is very nice with no experience with job. Nice offices, great benefits and all round good time.
Cons
Nothing or nothing yet idk
- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Benefits - some of the best I’ve seen Work/life balance - I manage majority of my own schedule and for the first time in my life I feel like I can actually ~live~ Autonomy - I really appreciate a company/leadership who trusts me to do my job and really let me do it, this is absolutely not a micromanagement environment Company vision and leadership - it’s really nice to believe in the vision, the ceo and the product of an organization and feel like a true disruptor in this industry Growth - they encourage us to find the best path and they help us build out the roadmap to success I truly feel like this company is where I want to be for the rest of my career!
Cons
Growing pains - As we continue to try to expand, I know that’s a common complaint and I think we will continue to feel that until the growth settles Initial training - in TA specifically there isn’t a training program the way there is for different divisions which is disappointing, you really have to learn as you go and kind of hope you just catch on Maternity/paternity leave - for such a progressive company I’m surprised this benefit isn’t more than it is Compensation - this is a pro and con for me, I personally feel highly comped but our comp feels all over the place sometimes in different divisions. Non senior TAs make basically the same as me so I’m not sure how they even differentiate It’s important to remember that no company is perfect and there will ALWAYS be cons. Would I recommend anyone I know to work at paylocity in any department? Absolutely! But I also think it’s good for us to see what our cons are and consistently strive to be better where and when we can

Continue reading - Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Great product. Great Executive leadership that cares about their employees.
Cons
Territories are re-aligned too often.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
I cannot speak highly enough about Paylocity. The culture here is amazing and I am happy to sell a product I can get behind.
Cons
A work from home sales job can be hard if you are not ready for it.
- Former Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
Pros are the people. Paylocity always talks about its great culture however the main thing that kept me for so long was the people. I don't think we had an amazing culture but it wasn't terrible. Going remote during covid was a great move and made me feel beyond safe
Cons
The pay is extremely low compared to other organizations. I left paylocity and instantly trippled my income. They released a pay transparency tool but the issue is if your on the lower end with high tenure so long as you fall within the brackets that's all that matters
Continue reading - Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Great culture, lots of flexibility, strong management, and great compensation
Cons
None so far - just a challenging sale
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Wonderful culture and outstanding leadership!
Cons
I don't really have any cons
