      Pros

      Great place to learn and grow. Promotions come frequently. Lots of internal opportunity -- and the training to get ahead is terrific. Benefits plan is great and lots of Wellness stuff, mostly free

      Cons

      A little old fashioned which is sometimes OK. Managers may be promoted so quickly so they are only a few years older than you in some cases. We've had some management turnover lately so there is some confusion about who is in charge. Not a lot of goof off time, but most of the time we go home at 5:00 too.

      Pros

      Great company with no micro-management. Reps are given the autonomy to make business decisions and create mutually beneficial relationships with CPA's and Bankers to generate refferals. Managers are supportive and want you to suceed so are more then happy to offer support and advice. If you have a bad month they will analyse the reasons for this and even go on appointments to help you get back on track. Sales Manager that can walk the walk is great. Its not an easy job but I am satisfied with the workload and the compensation at Paychex. We are treated with respect and its not a hard product. You just have to get in front of as many people as possible.

      Cons

      None. The job is tough but most the employees seem to enjoy the challenge.

      Pros

      We have lots of fun. Dress up days, homemade boat races, pot lucks, etc. The employees there are a really nice bunch of people to work for. They really are. Denver has beautiful weather. It is a great place to work. The team really works hard together to reach our goals. They offer the sales reps a chance to go to Conference, Circle and Ice each year. The location is located in Hawaii and the Bahamas. They are off to the Bahamas this year.

      Cons

      It's far away from everything, near the airport. No chance for overtime. No where to go up, unless I want to be in sales. I think the support team should be aloud to go to Conference as well. The DSM goes if the team is over quota but the FSS does not.
