Pros

$1 health insurance!! Or maybe I'm lying! Work here and find out!

Cons

For the last 3 years, Paycom has advertised to its entire development department that remote work was a permanent change. When our team leaders asked upper management if we would ever have to return back, upper management responded with "no". Not maybe, not possibly, just "no". Yesterday, the CIO pulled 2000 employees into a meeting with the chat disabled, videos disabled, our entire livelihood disabled. He told us there had been recent "communication slippage", that we "have not been firing on all cylinders", and said that the Dallas Cowboys have similar problems and that its usually related to communication. So they revoked the WHF policy with less than a months notice and created a webpage for us to leave comments and ask questions. In response to the question, "We were told that WFH is permanent. Why is this changing so suddenly?", they said "Our goal has always been to come together again." OH? HAS IT? Paycom lied for 3 years straight to the employees that it claims to care about and value so very much. Do yourself a favor. Don't work for Paycom. The pay is average for the industry and the people making decisions receive 4-12 million a year in stock awards-- so yeah, they forgot what it's like to pay for gas, tolls, childcare, etc..

Pros

- Base salary - PTO - Awesome colleagues - $1 Medical PPO offering

Cons

- Upper leadership seem to not value the operations department as much as they do with sales. They are not consistent as well, which causes them to change the entire department's job description, expectations, & commission structure every few months. Change is good but huge change every 3-4 months is so exhausting. - They overload you with too many clients to handle while increasing the number of internal calls. When asking for support from sales or middle management, its typically a hard negotiation or non-existent. Expect to work way over 40 hours/week and juggle 10-20+ clients at a time. - Sales will oversell on product & implementation expectation which makes the job 1000% harder. Turnover with sales is extremely high so don't expect for even the best reps stay as they either leave, get fired because quota was not met, or the new manager will cut them if they're "not the vibe". You get left with the newbies who does not know how to sell or support you when you need them. - Every role in this company has high turnover in general. Making it very hard to cross collaborate with other departments as everyone is either extremely swamped or new to the role and cannot support as well, - Being forced to go to Oklahoma for training every year, sometimes twice a year.
