Mostly Great, But Not All = 3.5 - Anonymous employee Paycom Employee Review

Pros

Great opportunity to make good money. Great training, to maximize potential. Great people to work with. Great company, overall, with good products and reputation. Great insurance and stock options.

Cons

Long hours and lack of flexibility create negative impact on personal life. Simple, no cost opportunities to improve quality of life are limited by management, unlike many progressive successful companies. Too many unproductive meetings that steal productive sales related time, when good people are already working 50 - 60 hours per week. Weekly (late Friday) national sales call / meeting requires everyone to participate from the office, guaranteeing you are stuck in big city traffic that makes Friday night family activity planning difficult.

We agree, at Paycom we have great people and sales training helps individuals grow, both personally and professionally. We pride ourselves on the quality of people we hire at Paycom and the sales department is no different. We have found that those who are intentional and purposeful with their schedules and remain focused during their office hours perform extremely well. Unfortunately, not everyone has the same commitment level to their development and career during regular working hours. At Paycom, we value our employees’ feedback and keep an open line of communication via surveys, one on ones and our HR hotline. We hope you will find an opportunity that better fits your skillset. Good luck in the future.

Pros

- training that will improve your skill - become better at fear management (fight mode is real)

Cons

- you will be threated to be fired- many many times (even if you work extremely hard) - your hard work is not valued- unreasonable expectations - there is not benchmark of success- goal always moves out of reach - no support, managers are more worried about not being fired than helping you
