Pros
The best thing about working at PaySimple is my co-workers. No matter how busy they are, they're always helpful, friendly, and compassionate. People who aren't in my division will happily lend a hand if I need it, and it contributes to a very positive atmosphere that makes me happy to go into work. Management at every level pays attention to their reports, and in turn does an excellent job of ensuring that everyone understands company-wide objectives, as well as the goals and achievements of other divisions. Management clearly cares about employee safety, and has done an excellent job of ensuring that employees can work from home effectively. Work-life balance is excellent (probably the best I've experienced at any company). Management has entirely reasonable expectations of employees, and everyone is encouraged to work reasonable hours. People are encouraged to take the time off they need or want to spend with family, relax, and otherwise be healthy and happy. Up-front pay is competitive.
Cons
While the management of PaySimple itself is good and they do what they can, it's clear that they're constrained by the owners of PaySimple's umbrella company. The umbrella company has forced layoffs, costing PaySimple years of invaluable experience. These layoffs were not needed to maintain solvency or even profitability, but were simply to satisfy short-term budget goals. So employees can be productive and working in divisions with absolutely amazing profit margins, yet still not know if they're going to be laid off tomorrow. All of this would be a worthwhile trade-off if the overall compensation were good, but that just isn't the case. While the up-front pay is competitive, there are no bonuses and no means for employees to acquire equity. Employees worried about their future at PaySimple have voluntarily left the company, which costs the company yet more experience. Several of these positions have not been back-filled due to budgetary constraints.
