Pros

Great sales development and training. Sales rep is involved in implementation, which makes for a consistent experience for your customer. New Client Setup really cares about your clients. Client Relations takes care of your client. Pay is very fair once you are an executive rep. The product is great and I'm very proud to sell it.

Cons

Culture differs from office to office. Also, this is a recent con: For the whole country, you're supposed to close 2 deals a month. You HAVE to close a deal every 8 weeks, even if you're at quota for the whole year half way through, or you get written up, which results in being fired. Upper management sees this as a good thing, but I think it's important for every sales person evaluating Paycom to know. Paycom puts less pressure on you if you close two small deals a month rather than big monster deals every 2 months, even if the amount of revenue is the same. One big deal is often way more revenue than 4 small deals. The reason this is a con - if you close a big deal, you have to be involved in the whole setup because you won't let any one screw up that account for you. But, small deals require just as much attention. So in theory, you could have the more revenue with less account setup, but that's "Not Paycom's culture." Even though, with less setup, you have more time to focus on sales related activities and actually enjoy life since you have less clients calling you all day & night. At Paycom, it's not about results - it's about consistency.

Pros

- You will have the opportunity to get involved with organizations to create efficiencies, drive progress & innovation, and make an impact on a daily basis. Very rewarding. - A lot of smart, dedicated, hardworking individuals in the department and organization. - Growing like crazy = tons of opportunities for movement & promotions. - Great new hire training program. - Great Benefits: $1 Heathcare, 401k w/ Match, Stock Purchase Plan (up 44% in last 6 months). - Cell Phone & Car Allowance. - Reimbursed Expenses. Just to name a few...

Cons

- You will take the blame for things that are out of your control. If considering this position, be prepared to take it on the chin and press on. - You will have some long days every now and then. Not a punch the clock 9-5 gig if that is what you are looking for.

Pros

Great environment, job description was apt, workplace atmosphere is very comfortable and easy. Hiring process was very streamlined from recruiting to interview everything was fast paced and I always felt like I could reach out for help if needed. I went from applying to interviewing to getting the job all within two weeks.

Cons

Only downside is its a bit far from home and ita easy to get turned around when you're new
