      Pros

      Not much really. The $1 a paycheck insurance is nice but that's more to make up for the low pay they hire a lot of people at and you'll have a hard time taking off to go to the doctor anyway so it's not much of a pro.

      Cons

      Paycom is another in a long line of companies in the Oklahoma City area that hire inexperienced people in droves, work them as hard as they possibly can and then drop the ones who can't or won't comply to the crazed culture. If you have any real job experience, you won't last long because you'll either quit when you realize the insanity of it all or be fired when you try to make actual change. Don't work here if you can avoid it. The company loves to joke about being cult like asome a previous reviewer pointed out. They may joke but it's really pretty close to the truth. You'll work long, horrible hours for little real recognition. Example: I worked in a department that finished an incredibly difficult assignment a week early. We all got called to a meeting and they started handing out envelopes. We get excited thinking they were a bonus. Nope. Our bonus was some ice cream. The envelopes were part of a party game. The whole company is like that. It presents like a serious company but under it all its a company that grew way too fast to meet an IPO deadline and now has lots of inexperienced, and frankly pretty lost, middle management trying to blunder along. Steer clear.

      Paycom challenges and stretches its employees, and with those challenges come unlimited opportunities for career growth. Our compensation structure is highly competitive and is in-line or better than averages posted by the Department of Labor and our peers. We recognize that working at Paycom isn’t for everyone and it does require added effort, but this is what a company with high growth looks like. It takes a person that is willing to put in hard work, and those that do put in the effort, reap the rewards. We will pass your concerns onto members of our senior leadership team.

      Pros

      * Fast learning and professional skill growth. * Great people and strong teams. * Recognized name in the OKC community. * Valuable experience that strengthens future career opportunities, especially in Tech.

      Cons

      Over the past couple of years, career growth has felt extremely limited. Promotions and meaningful raises have become increasingly rare, and many employees believe these decisions are being driven from the very top. Layoffs and terminations have also become common, creating a constant sense of uncertainty. High performers often take on high-visibility projects with aggressive timelines and limited support. The expectations are unrealistic, and even successful delivery doesn’t usually lead to recognition or advancement. Leadership tends to make decisions very late, creating unnecessary urgency and forcing teams into last-minute scrambles. Benefits have declined, opportunities for advancement have become scarce, and overall morale has suffered significantly. There are talented people here and it can be a good place to gain experience, but I would view it primarily as a stepping stone rather than a long-term destination.
