Pros

I have been working at Paycom for 6 years, starting straight out of college. When I joined Paycom, we were a much smaller company. Looking back now, I realize that I found a diamond in the rough. People ask me ALL the time what I like most about working here and I tell them honestly it changes from month to month or year to year. The one constant is the upward mobility I have had. To be 6 years out of college and a top sales executive with a publicly held software company is pretty amazing! I love the career and of course we all love the monetary reward as well. Every dollar I have to my name I earned through hard work here at Paycom and it has afforded me an amazing lifestyle I never thought was possible. I wouldn't trade this experience for anything! Paycom is extremely honest about the level of work ethic we expect with our sales team. We hire the best and brightest nation wide and expect hard work! The reason why is because the REWARD FAR exceeds the work put in. I have never heard of a single company that offers the money, career advancement and incentives to their sales staff like Paycom- its truly incredible.

Cons

Honestly, for being so rapidly growing, Paycom does a great job making adjustments in our processes when necessary. Every fast growing company will experience some growing pains, however, we seem to get ahead of those before they actually happen.

Pros

- Base salary - PTO - Awesome colleagues - $1 Medical PPO offering

Cons

- Upper leadership seem to not value the operations department as much as they do with sales. They are not consistent as well, which causes them to change the entire department's job description, expectations, & commission structure every few months. Change is good but huge change every 3-4 months is so exhausting. - They overload you with too many clients to handle while increasing the number of internal calls. When asking for support from sales or middle management, its typically a hard negotiation or non-existent. Expect to work way over 40 hours/week and juggle 10-20+ clients at a time. - Sales will oversell on product & implementation expectation which makes the job 1000% harder. Turnover with sales is extremely high so don't expect for even the best reps stay as they either leave, get fired because quota was not met, or the new manager will cut them if they're "not the vibe". You get left with the newbies who does not know how to sell or support you when you need them. - Every role in this company has high turnover in general. Making it very hard to cross collaborate with other departments as everyone is either extremely swamped or new to the role and cannot support as well, - Being forced to go to Oklahoma for training every year, sometimes twice a year.
