Pros

Younger co-workers, pretty easy summers, relatively good managers, profit sharing benefits

Cons

The place has a high turnover rate, mainly because people get burned out and generally most people hate what they do. They always pushed "customer satisfaction" and "stress management". They micro-manage everything and you will have managers monitoring your calls with clients. Worst job I ever had.

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.
