Pros

Decent work to life balance with exception from Nov - Feb -Departments other than Tech Support and Account managers seem to be much better because there is not as much micro-managing.

Cons

-Vacation black out periods from Nov- Feb. -Some weekends required "based on the needs of the business" -Management has no regard for your daily schedule, they will throw un-scheduled meetings on your calendar and just expect you to adjust your day around them -Management doesnt get advice from people in the trenches dealing with the daily struggles, they all make decisions based on THEIR needs, not OUR needs. -No ongoing training and development -Very "clicky" -Most micro-managed job i've ever experienced. Need to let entire team know when you GO, and RETURN from: Personal calls, bathroom, 15 min break, lunch break, etc -Management style is do as I say, not as I (or others on the team) do, constant double standards, tons of mis-information provided then we are expected to find time in our already planned day to work around managements mis-information. -Growth is VERY slow, need to be in dept. at least 1 year before making LATERAL moves. Tons of lateral moves, not much upward growth in Tech Support or being an account manager. Expect to be in tech support 4-5 years before you break 60K at best. -Wages are very stagnant. -Company relies wayyyyy to much on data to track productivity, it DOES NOT paint a real life picture of the day to day inefficiencies (and there are a TON of them)

Pros

Paylocity has its ups and downs. But overall, I think it's an interesting entry role.

Cons

Every day in office can be draining. Pay can be a bit on the lower end for some.
