Pros

Great starting place for a career. I was hired through a temp agency and worked hard and got hired full-time. The clout of working at Paychex is pretty big in Rochester, NY (makes you feel good when you tell people you work there) Benefits are decent, but they are a lot lower than they were a decase or two ago.

Cons

The pay is very very low for entry personell along with supervisors. Not until you get to middle management and above do you get a decent pay. The stock options are worth nothing. The only thing you get with the low-pay is the fact that when you tell peole you work at Paychex it sounds good. Too bad they don't realize you make only 30K

Pros

Paychex is a great company to work for. I’ve held multiple roles over 20+ years. There are always ups and downs, but for every position, manager, decision I disagree with, there are ten others that are outstanding.

Cons

It’s a large company with many opportunities to grow, but smaller companies may offer higher compensation.

Pros

People and the overall environment is a positive one. If you do your part, definite long term career potential. It’s not easy- but stable, growing. Worth serious consideration for early career looking for sales experience with a great training program. Also good for mid-career consideration if base salary isn’t the primary reason you are in sales.

Cons

Very fast pace that doesn’t suit everyone. If you are looking for easy or just a job to “hang out”, this probably isn’t the right spot for you.
