      Pros

      In certain roles your job is secure because you’ll be spending your days fixing internal errors or mistakes.

      Cons

      I have worked here a very long time now and the changes that have taken place since we became Paychex 2.0 have tanked the company beyond belief and company stock prices confirm that. Roles that offered work from home options pre covid had those days taken away with the return to office mandate. EAMs are given raise after raise to try to keep people in those roles, but they know less than ever. Expect pay to be below market if you’re not in an EAM role. They are paid more than leads on other teams, even with 1/10 of the tenure of those leads. Csuit used to know employee names. These paychex guys have made it clear that they couldn’t care less.

      Pros

      Work remote. Fantastic leaders, Definitely a place I have enjoyed working.

      Cons

      Pay is slightly less than competitors but work life balance and culture make up for it.

      Pros

      There used to be many. By the time I left all of the pros had been phased out. The only pro was allowing some people to stay remote- but if you wanted to advance in your career you would be forced back in office.

      Cons

      Low pay. Micromanaging. Hiring leadership from outside Paylocity and even outside of the industry. Major and extreme departmental changes rapidly. Change is a part of business but in six months my role became unrecognizable. I was there for five years and had planned to be there for much longer. This last year was terrible. Low communication from all leadership. Higher and higher expectations of employees with no bonuses or pay raises to accommodate. My regional director was forcing people out and speaking badly about employees regularly.
