Pros

Qdoba day is cool, health insurance is a steal for single folk, good coworkers

Cons

Paycom was the most micromanaged and understaffed companies I have ever worked for. Throughout my 4 or so different professional roles, Paycom is the ONLY employer with which I've had a bad experience. There was mandatory OT almost every week, as management refused to staff the team adequately (in my opinion, they struggled to hire due to low starting wages and poor work-life balance). Employees were required/strongly recommended to tell them team any time you step away from your desk, e.g. to use the bathroom (BFFR, you can't handle me being away from my desk for literally 90 seconds?) Even though KPIs could be tracked through Paycom's internal software, we were still asked to keep track of them on a sheet of paper to give to our TL at the end of week (why??) Dress code for non-client facing roles seemed a bit silly for a "tech" company, as did being in-office full time.

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.
