Pros

-Company provides competitive pay -Paycom provides a wide-ranging suite of benefits at an affordable cost and is always looking to diversify the benefits portfolio and negotiate costs on behalf of employees. -Coming from the service industry, Paycom has provided generous PTO options, fair compensation, and schedule stability in comparison with what I'm used to. I appreciate being able to have nights/weekends/holidays off and the flexibility that the PTO policy provides.

Cons

At times, there can be multiple department-wide initiatives going at the same time. Each of them is important and adds value to the client experience and promotes Paycom's business model. However, it can be difficult to fully invest in these initiatives while taking care of clients' troubleshooting needs and their specific list of priorities, outside of strategic company initiatives.
