Pros

Paycom offers very competitive starting pay for the Oklahoma City area. The medical benefit is only $1 for employee only coverage. They also offer something called the Zero Card for medical coverage as well for no cost. Highly recommend using the Zero Card if able to be used. The card can save a significant amount of money. Many of the immediate supervisors and peers you work with are professional. Overall the people are a pleasure to work with.

Cons

There are a lot of changes going on currently. As someone who prefers stability the last two years have been extremely challenging. The workload seems quite excessive as multiple departments have been consolidated. In the last two years I had leaders change about every three months for various reasons. Automation within the company has eliminated many positions this past year. Changes have been made to the medical plans so that several medications are no longer covered. This is extremely unfortunate especially because no one was notified until after open enrollment was completed. One medication for diabetes treatment and weight loss was cut, the company response essentially was "we have a gym, please use it. "

Pros

The people at lower levels are great, decent benefits, good PTO policy.

Cons

Any form of leadership above team lead is bad or becomes bad. There was a saying at Paycom “don’t get close to the sun” referring to the CEO. Leadership became worse the closer you got to the CEO. The culture is toxic because there is so much instability, confusion, wish washiness. The company is very punitive and will fire or eliminate rolls without much thought. What makes things worse is the company is almost hedonistic, constantly proclaiming all she awards it receives as “best place” to work but majority of employees current and present don’t feel the same.

At Paycom, our experienced leaders drive continued success. Processes may shift with business priorities, but our mission and expectations for performance and execution don't.
