Pros

Working at Paylocity is the perfect balance of fun, excitement, and challenge. It really feels like the Google of the Payroll world. It's an amazing feeling to get up in the morning and be excited to start working. Some of the perks include: -Work from home flexibility *(Though, I know this varies by department.) -Casual dress code -Really nice office space -Free snacks in the lunch rooms -Great health benefits -Lots of employee events -Work/Life balance

Cons

Everything here is really awesome. The only thing I could slightly pick at would be that the PTO offering is a little light. Although, when you don't have to use a few days of your PTO on losing the will to go to work that day, it ends up more than balancing out.

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

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

Pros

Teammate relationships during difficult days.

Cons

Paying out executive bonuses and Sr leaders while mid-level and lower employees had their bonus removed and their stock options taken away. This company is the epitome of making the rich richer while allowing the employees who are busting their bottoms to drown without monetary compensation. It was heartbreaking for me to see my team unable to receive any bonus monies while our executives received millions even though the decision they made resulted in the stock price dropping by over $100.
