Pluspunten
$1 healthcare, catered lunches, and good first job to get experience. Great pay and bonuses if you work in certain departments that the leadership favors.
Minpunten
They pride themselves on recruiting fresh out of college when students don’t have any real comparison to how a company should treat their people, so they get a good few years out of you until you realize “wait… I should be treated like I matter?!” Cons? how much time do you have? They don’t value your opinion or ideas unless they agree with it. The pay is way lower than it should be. Work load is unmanageable for most (probably because everyone keeps leaving?) You get hounded to come back to work after a death in the family (I’m talking a couple of days… they’re all heart. Oh and you better make sure you use PTO). Only their favourite departments get bonuses despite the fact that the company is making money over fist each year. How about a company wide raise for all the profit your employees helped you make? Nah, have a park and some ‘swag’ instead…. Ok thanks… Despite claiming to be an industry leader you want your workforce on-site… even though the whole idea of the company is to be online and accessible from anywhere. They stopped doing exit interviews because they didn’t like the negative feedback. They ask employees (myself included a few years back, though I didn’t do it) to post 5 star fake reviews to improve their image. Promises promotions and raises and then they are taken away without a valid reason as to why. Products, features and updates are rushed out the door without the time to fully implement them or explore options because they just want to sing and dance about all the new development, despite the whole team being against the idea. CEO has no grasp on reality when it comes to tech. He is a salesman, plain and simple, which is fine if he would listen to his experts but he doesn’t. Leaders put the fear of death in you by saying he will randomly fire you on the spot if he has a bad day… great leader there. Mandatory overtime which sometimes results in some departments working 80+ hours a week. I don’t even need to mention the recent WFH shenanigans, there were enough cons before this happened. This is just the icing on the cake and people outside of the bubble are finally seeing their true colors. Over a decade of time spent there and when I decided to leave on good terms for a completely different opportunity/industry I was pretty much shunned during my notice period. I could go on but you get the point. Paycom’s people don’t matter, only the profit they make and their stock value does.
