      Pros

      Known as one of the highest-paying pure tech companies in the state. Benefits are incredible, and they perks are cool. Software engineers: ~$100k+ Senior developers/architects: $120k–$150k+

      Cons

      Working at Paycom can be really frustrating, and honestly it feels like the company expects way too much out of employees. The workload is constant and the pressure to hit metrics never really stops, which makes it feel like you’re always being watched and judged on performance. Management tends to micromanage a lot of things, so it doesn’t feel like there’s much trust in employees to just do their jobs. The hours can get long, and it’s tough to maintain any real work-life balance because the expectations keep piling up. On top of that, it sometimes feels like job security depends entirely on whether you’re hitting numbers at that exact moment, which creates a stressful environment where people worry about being replaced or let go. While the pay might be decent compared to other companies in Oklahoma, the stress and pressure can make it hard to feel like it’s worth it, and it’s one of the reasons a lot of people don’t stay here long. Thats if they have the choice to stay...

      We recognize that managing expectations, metrics and day to day responsibilities can be challenging to navigate. Leaders are responsible for providing clarity around priorities, ensuring teams have the tools and resources needed to do their work effectively, and balancing oversight with the ability for individuals to operate with autonomy and ownership in their roles. Our goal is to maintain an environment where expectations are well defined, performance is evaluated consistently and teams are equipped to meet those expectations without unnecessary friction. We continue to focus on alignment between leadership and teams to support sustainable performance within our high-accountability workplace. We strongly encourage you to initiate a conversation with your leader and discuss your feedback.

      Pros

      * Fast learning and professional skill growth. * Great people and strong teams. * Recognized name in the OKC community. * Valuable experience that strengthens future career opportunities, especially in Tech.

      Cons

      Over the past couple of years, career growth has felt extremely limited. Promotions and meaningful raises have become increasingly rare, and many employees believe these decisions are being driven from the very top. Layoffs and terminations have also become common, creating a constant sense of uncertainty. High performers often take on high-visibility projects with aggressive timelines and limited support. The expectations are unrealistic, and even successful delivery doesn’t usually lead to recognition or advancement. Leadership tends to make decisions very late, creating unnecessary urgency and forcing teams into last-minute scrambles. Benefits have declined, opportunities for advancement have become scarce, and overall morale has suffered significantly. There are talented people here and it can be a good place to gain experience, but I would view it primarily as a stepping stone rather than a long-term destination.
