Pros

- PEO offering is good. - Company has longevity - Great Co Workers - Great entry job into better paying HCM sales opportunities.

Cons

- Poor management - became extreme micro management the past 6 months - Pay is extremely subpar. Realistically takes 5-10 years of selling 100+ employees per year to have the residual mean anything and the salary isn't enough to carry you if you're in a high cost market. It's the business equivalent of The Hunger Games. - Expense accounts are paltry - $385 for gas, networking/marketing expenses and that's it. Everyone basically uses it for gas because that's all it covers. - There are only 2 solutions they sell and you will be committed to one or the other, so you will be looking for a needle in a stack of needles. It's all or nothing and you may be trying to sell a solution that isn't a true fit for your prospect but it's all you got and you have to hit numbers. - Budgets slashed to the bone - Networking and loyalty events are how these deals get done and those budgets were ground to dust. Be ready to spend your own money or cold call until you're blue in the face. - Most Expensive Offering in the Market - I think it's good to cost a little more than the competition but in most cases you're coming in double and you're only hope is you're the only one in the room or you can find some crazy medical benefits cost savings to compete - Lose clients quickly - Most clients leave within 1-2 years, primarily due to cost. Another issue is service is way over hyped, over promise and under deliver, all out of your control. Finally, another big one is how rigid payroll is in all areas; no expense management, no 1099 support (though this is supposed to be coming), and outdated technology.

Pros

Good benefits. Can't think of any other.

Cons

Poor pay, the lowest paying company in the PEO industry. District Managers are awful, the ones I had. Regional Manager is less than supportive and more interested in micromangement. In my office, there is lack of support from District Manager and Regional Manager. I have witnessed first hand in a few areas District managers going on ride alongs, helping BPAs target businesses. It's an HR company that preaches work culture, but does not practice what it preaches. Turnover is higher than they like to admit, due to the nature of the job and appalling pay structure. Wear and tear of personal vehicle- you're not reimbursed mileage, or given vehicle allowance. You get an Amex card with less than $400 monthly, that is meant to cover gas (even with the current has prices), oil change, lunches, networking events. The amount itself is a joke, usually you run out of funds after the first week or 2 of each month and you're formed to use your own funds. Regional manager blamed entire team for people that got laid off, afterwards threatened people's jobs. When investors wanted more money, there were massive layoffs. Some staff were promised roles within the company, but of course they didn't keep their end of the bargain. I was given the most useless RM and DM. When I was hired, my district manager told a few lies and tricked me into accepting the position.
