Pros

Free snacks, brand new office. Mostly good-intention first level supervisors and employees. In my experience, Direct report supervisors genuinely wanted to help you succeed.

Cons

Less pay, but you get an 'engaging Culture'. Select employees in departments all across the organization almost seem disillusioned about the true culture at Paylocity. There is an overarching theme you hear everywhere, (maybe pushed by HR), to constantly talk about 'How Great it is to work at Paylocity'. 'Leave a great review on Glassdoor'. After a while, it comes off as being disingenuous. In reality, you're just another replaceable cog in the machine.

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.
