Pros

Good benefits. You can find good people there but make sure you know someone before you confide in them

Cons

Leadership is toxic and rewards ‘children’ for bad behavior. The more HR complaints you have against you the more likely you are to be promoted. Literally. Those that work hard and respect others get pushed to the side and forgotten. With their recent layoffs they provided zero severance and are refusing to pay unemployment for hundreds of people that were affected.

Paycom is a high growth, performance driven organization, which is also reflected in our promotion practices. We have not experienced layoffs, and in fact we are actively hiring across many of our departments. Although we understand certain work environments aren't for everyone, we strive to cultivate a workplace where every team member feels valued and supported. If you would like to discuss your review further, please reach out to us directly at hrmgmt@paycomonline.com, or utilize Paycom’s reporting hotline, which can be found on our website under the Governance Documents section of the Investors page.

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
