Pros

Good CEO Trying to growth solutions Stock Options Clear Message

Cons

When they are done with you or you them, they are classless on exiting. The have their "chosen" few for a fast track succession plan. I didn't have a manager review in 3+ years yet always completed self assessments. They don't follow their own policies but pick and choose what's enforced.

Pros

Paycor is very innovative, and committed to developing the best technology for clients. They are going through a lot of exciting changes, which include major product enhancements, new design, new marketing, and soon, even a new building. Committed employees are recognized and rewarded well. If you have an interest in being a part of things, your effort is welcomed and your ideas are heard. You are trused to take care of your own duties without much micro-managing.

Cons

There can be somewhat of a division between the "old school" employees who have been at the company for many years and the newer employees. However, there is generally a good sense of morale. People who dislike change would have a hard time here. The current headquarters building is a little shabby, but plans are already in place for a new location.

Pros

I give Paycor an "A" for effort in trying to market themselves as an employer of choice. YoY they work hard to win local awards. They recognize that these local awards might help their marketability as a nice place to work.

Cons

The problem with that is, they're more focused on winning "Best Places to Work" awards than making actual internal changes that would lead to that distinction with their own employees. Many of the executives at Paycor have been there since the start, and it's clear the organization has outgrown them. Executives brought in from the outside, come from ultra-conservative organizations like Cintas only adding to their problems in being perceived as 'stuffy' and inflexible. Initial compensation offers to candidates are competitive, but that's where it stops. Future increases are tough to come by - thus a contributing factor to their high turnover problems. Paycor prides itself in being a hard-working/whatever-it-takes-like environment. But in reality it's a overly micromanaged and abrasive place to work.
