Pros

I am an Implementation Consultant I and coming from no payroll or corporate background; I have never had a better experience so far with any company I have been with. I have worked in Retail, Food, and Sales industries and Paylocity is a mixture of HR and IT. If you enjoy working with technology and in a fast paced environment this is the place for you. In my short time working with the company these are the pros I have seen so far: -Casual environment; working in a corporate office with casual dress code -Peers; everyone is so helpful and friendly, there is no cutthroat competition or drama -Management: trusts you to do your job, take your lunch whenever you deem necessary, little micromanagement. Management from the Founder and the president of the company care about your opinions and wellbeing-here you are a person and you have a voice. -Schedule: End of Year gets busy and the quarter starts and ends so opportunity for OT. No weekends, PTO and Sick days and vacation time Benefits: 401K, Emp stock purchase plan, Bluecross Blue shield Dental and Medical, HSA and FSA, GTL, Disability Multiple break/game rooms on site: fresh fruit and nuts delivered weekly, corporate mini market and free caribou coffee. Many vendors come to give a variety for lunch as well as different food trucks Travel: There are at least 2 conferences a year: in Feb (last year was in Vegas) and in August at the headquarters near Chicago Flexibility: Many employees work remotely from many different states and equipment is supplied to you to do your job; can work from home Advancement: Many opportunities for career growth; the company is growing quickly and is very successful-the sky's the limit! Training: For my particular position I received 6 weeks of paid training (remote and on-site) and it was fantastic. It really helped me feel comfortable and prepared to do my work.

Cons

Some vacation restrictions during the busier times of year. Company is growing quickly and changes to procedures and management can get a little overwhelming sometimes.

Pros

Great co-workers and team leads. Food days!

Cons

Let's see, micromanage to the max. You can't even take a break let alone go to the bathroom without the manager instant messaging you, asking why aren't you available to take calls. This role is pretty much two jobs in one. You have to take calls from the queue plus assisting your clients via email and phone at the same time which can be stressful. Half of these positive account manager reviews must be from management. The fact that one of the account manager reviews said there is game room on the floor is false! Their is a game room but not where the account managers are. Paylocity is a great company but the account manager role can be a negative reflection.
