Pros

Strong company reputation especially if you want to be in the tech world Development opportunities (though you will have much more if you are located at one of the two headquarter locations) More freedom if you are in one of the satellite offices Teaches you how to be VERY adaptable because directives changed from one day to the next the entire time I worked for the company

Cons

Openly discriminatory when it comes to hiring for sales teams (sales managers will openly reference weight, age, race, etc. because they don't "fit the Paycom look") Negative, overly competitive, cut-throat which is detrimental if you like to work in a team environment = everyone is basically out for themselves Was told that we need to wear our hair down and put on makeup to be "acceptable" by Paycom standards Very old school for a tech company = you have to dress in suit and ties and people have been rejected as potential hires due to facial hair It became clear through quarantine that productivity was more important than the mental health/well being of the employees

Pros

The work we do is challenging but is satisfying. $4 dollar lunches are great and I enjoy the people and managers I work with. We have gone through changes, but the changes are worth it and the tools we are provided keep us successful. The salary is great and top level, highly recommend working here if you love a challenge. I promise you’ll never be bored.

Cons

The workload and hours can be heavy at times, but the long-term gratification is worth it. Paycom is about long-term investment, and it requires patience and perseverance but it’s worth it, if you are strong enough.

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
