Pros

I can't think of any -entry level starter job -they lie in the interview about your job responsibilities

Cons

-Really high turnover( 3 managers in 4 months) - Most coworkers are very unhappy uncomfortable business culture -The Worst Part you have to fight for your sales once they are made anything Paychex can do to not pay you out they will -They have no system for tracking them( allegedly) so it's not their fault if you dont get paid. I have no idea how any of the sales employees can deal with this poor behavior from this company -Train you the wrong way then when it becomes a problem OOPS your to blame -glorified call center they make you use your own cell phone(which means they have access to your phone) -micro managed (once a month when sales are dues focus on very small insignificant details due to the giant disconnect with management mgr had never sold insurance absolutely no clue about the business whatsoever) -pushed for sales that aren't legit -poor business practice -very poor training -churn and burn not really interested in teaching you sales or the insurance business -outdated business practices methodologies -really odd woke culture and training videos - absolute no respect work life balance personal time mgr wants you to start at 7 and take calls past 6 and not get paid for any of it

Pros

Paychex is a great company to work for. I’ve held multiple roles over 20+ years. There are always ups and downs, but for every position, manager, decision I disagree with, there are ten others that are outstanding.

Cons

It’s a large company with many opportunities to grow, but smaller companies may offer higher compensation.

Pros

Remote work is a plus. Collaboration from peers is more plus than minus. Documentation of business technology was great for the most part.

Cons

Worse holiday observance company I ever worked for. Pay is low for what is asked. Work/life balance was good until 2025. Mid-level leadership and above is not ideal. I had little guidance when I started so, especially from manager so had to figure things out with help of peers.
