Pros

Co-Workers are friendly Get to work on challenging problems Transparency with leadership to your hear problems but very little action.

Cons

Nothing makes Paylocity that special anymore. If you are a good engineer you will be expected to give all you can and more. Management wants quality but lacks ability to lead or enforce it. Every manager is looking for their next promotion while status quo is the same. We continue to grow and take more away from our employees. Paylocity is not a leader and is only reactionary while having the “most modern” HCM solution. A lot of internal career opportunities are now overseas, limiting the options for internal movement for US Based Employees

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

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.
