      Pros

      None. There is no good reason to work for Paylocity when compared to the competition. Apply somewhere else if you can.

      Cons

      High turnover, Poor initial and ongoing training. Low wages and low-ball "merit" increases that don't keep up with inflation. Barely competitive benefit offerings,

      Pros

      The pros are mostly in the past. Paylocity was a company that I was proud to be working for. The pros currently are just the benefits package. That’s all for me.

      Cons

      The cons have started to rear their ugly faces in every day life at Paylocity. Middle management has no idea of what’s going on during the day to day business operations. In addition, the pay transparency that we pride ourselves on is such a useless tool as for most roles, they will keep you at the minimum end of the spectrum regardless of performance. I was OK with the pay as I was hired on as a full time remote employee and now they’ve placed a RTO order for 5 days a week for all operations employees within a 50 mile radius. Paylocity loves to claim to support employee wellbeing, “the future of HR,” and the such, but then they follow suit to literally all corporate policies that employees hate. The CEO drinks his own koolaid too. Don’t forget that one! Last, but not least, the work load is absolutely insane and turnover is high.

      Pros

      There’s no pros. They just removed WFH which was the only pro they had over the others

      Cons

      Everything. Low Pay, high turnover, high client count, management does not care
