Pros

For the temporary assignment, I was able to work 1st shift, 8-4:30 daily which was nice. Nice cafeteria. Somewhat clean bathrooms

Cons

I worked in a typical call center environment. Every phone call was monitored and bathroom breaks were timed. There was very little chance of getting time off when needed and not much opportunity for advancement. I didn't even get my own desk to work at. I worked in a temporary position with several others. One day after lunch in the middle of the week, they told us all that our assignment was over without any warning.

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.
