Pros

Autonomy, great commission structure, agile software development, went through IPO here and it was wonderful how well they treated the employees. I am a District Manager, have been here about 4 years, and earn over 300k per year consistently. I am not hassled, brow beat, or hammered about quota. I am in the top 5% of reps I would say, but even our average reps make over 200k per year. Average is a tough word, because the staff is very solid, it is very obvious if you don't have the closing skills and presentation skills to do this job fairly quickly. I would not recommend this job to anyone who doesn't like to learn, change directions fairly quickly, be able to ask for the business, or expose truth.

Cons

Industry is a bit littered with scammers. There are a few other good companies in the industry, but many folks I compete against will say anything to get the business. It hurts the industry as a whole due to trust issues. We are paid a residual for clients staying here at Paylocity, so lying to close doesn't help us.

Pros

Work remote. Fantastic leaders, Definitely a place I have enjoyed working.

Cons

Pay is slightly less than competitors but work life balance and culture make up for it.

Pros

The pay is decent compared to the market and the tech is solid.

Cons

The company is abandoning their strategy of "partner first" and is doing their best to become a worse version of Paychex/ADP... Every decision that comes from the top seems so disconnected with reality. Turnover is a huge problem. In just 12 months I've had turnover in my director, channel partner managers, channel support, partner services, RVP, SDR, and more. It's impossible to get anything done when every position around you is a revolving door. Everyone I speak with across lines of business has a similar story. It is a mess across the entire org.
