      Pros

      Do you enjoy swag? Because that’s about the only good thing about working here.

      Cons

      - Don’t look at data when making decisions. - Very hierarchical. - Assume you have no experience prior to Paylocity and that this is your first job despite years of tenure with even more successful companies. - Marketing leadership is condescending and enjoys degrading people in meetings - even though their ideas are incredibly valid. - Opportunities may open up on the team, but they are not for you. They are only for external folks only. Sometimes, you don’t even know about them. Best friends of the CMO just show up. - A pay transparency tool shows you just how underpaid you are. - 10 people leave in one year and the team doesn’t do anything.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We have recently launched the Pay Transparency tool companywide. This includes market data and salary ranges to further reflect our competitive edge and fulfill our promise of full transparency. We believe strongly in career mobility and encourage employees to apply for opportunities of interest and ensure that the employees are supported to move into other roles at Paylocity.

      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

      Great benefits; 90% of the ppl that worked there were the best and really did great work.

      Cons

      Made employees choose between having MLK Day off or Juneteenth- both which are federally recognized holidays. Excuse was that our customers are open on those days so we need to be open. So as a company, we had to pick which would be a paid holiday and everyone chose Juneteenth because it was in the summer. I think we got a floating holiday to use for any other holiday we wanted off that wasn’t recognized by the company. As you can imagine, this racism was prevalent in management/leadership. My team was the most diverse team and we all got restructured/laid off. There’s a lot of ego and control issues in this company, especially in Talent Acquisition.
