Pros

Before the cons stated below, this company truly WAS a top company to work for. The work life balance was and still is great in most departments. Culture was very friendly and all the people I worked with all were happy.

Cons

Yesterday, we had a town hall announcing that everyone besides dev must return to the office 5 days a week next month. For dev it's going to alternate between 3 days a week and 2 days a week. This is apparently to increase productivity and push out critical projects. This is unacceptable. Many of us accepted a job here under the impression that we had a permanent hybrid schedule. Now we are being forced to change our entire life due to a completely irrational decision from the very top. All of our leadership below C-level was completely blindsided by this. Good luck with pushing out those critical projects when most of your company leaves and the ones that choose to stay behind are demoralized. I'll be putting in my 2 week's notice and find a fully remote job with someone I can trust. Paycom cannot gain back their employees trust.

Pros

You can make a lot of money if you are in the right territory and have a good client base that hasn’t been oversold by previous AMs. The training is very good and you will make good friends! The people they hire are smart and fun to be around

Cons

If there has been high turnover in your territory it will be hard to sell as the clients have products that have not been properly implemented and are likely gun shy to purchase. It will also depend how “over promised/under delivered” their experience with new business is. The work/life balance can, and probably will, become very toxic. You are on the road constantly if you have a travel heavy territory which makes it difficult to get admin work done during business hours. You will be working before and/or after work - probably on the weekends as well. Ask for transparency in your territory assignment. You want to know how far your furthest client is as you will have to go see them in person at some point

This is a performance-driven role with high expectations, and team members are given clear direction and the tools to succeed. Those who consistently deliver see meaningful rewards for the work they put in. Please share further feedback with your leader.
